Description

This map shows the connectivity of Hard corals in the Great Barrier Reef and its surrounding areas: Torres Strait, Coral Sea and Great Sandy regions. The arrows indicate the strength and nature of the connection between the regions. This map is intended to identify where one region is dependent on a neighbouring region.

Additional notes: Demographic connectivity uncertain (based on genetic data).

The data for this map was developed based on expert opinion (Jon Brodie, Guillermo Diaz-Pulido, Line Bay, Tristan Simpson, Maria Zann, Karlo Hock).
