From particle attachment to space-filling coral skeletons
Reef-building corals and their aragonite (CaCO(3)) skeletons support entire reef ecosystems, yet their formation mechanism is poorly understood. Here we used synchrotron spectromicroscopy to observe the nanoscale mineralogy of fresh, forming skeletons from six species spanning all reef-forming coral...
