珊瑚礁结构的复杂性提供了重要的生态系统功能,如用于海岸保护的波浪衰减、用于珊瑚生长的表面以及其他生物的栖息地。珊瑚在很大程度上构成了这种结构,但人们对不同物种和大小的群体如何导致复杂性缺乏了解。我们量化了KāNe‘ohe Bay(O’ahu,Hawai‘i)珊瑚礁斑块和生长在其上的珊瑚的三个相互依赖的复杂性描述符--粗糙度、分维和高度范围。尽管整个海湾的珊瑚礁规模的复杂性水平相似,但我们发现物种对这种复杂性的贡献存在显著差异。物种间复杂性的差异与群体形态密切相关,而与群体大小无关。总而言之,我们的结果表明,没有一个物种足以产生我们在珊瑚礁上看到的全面的栖息地复杂性,这对珊瑚礁的恢复和恢复有直接影响。
The structural complexity of coral reefs provides important ecosystem functions, such as wave attenuation for coastal protection, surfaces for coral growth, and habitat for other organisms. Corals build much of this structure, but an understanding of how colonies of different species and sizes contribute to complexity is lacking. We quantified three interdependent descriptors of complexity—rugosity, fractal dimension, and height range—for reef patches as well as the corals growing upon them in Kāne‘ohe Bay (O‘ahu, Hawai‘i). Despite similar levels of reef-scale complexity throughout the bay, we found marked differences in how species contribute to this complexity. Variation in complexity among species was closely tied to colony morphology, but not to colony size. Together, our results show that no one species is sufficient to generate the full spectrum of habitat complexities we see on coral reefs, which has direct implications for reef recovery and restoration.
