Kinsey expeditions to the Great Barrier Reef(late 1960s to early 1980s)
Lizard Island
Expeditions
September 2008November 2009
Net Coral Skeletal Growth Rate Measured at Lizard Island
One Tree Island
ExpeditionDecember 2009
Water ponds at different levels in different lagoons at low tide.
Some flow over sills.
Rate of net calcification 44% lower than in 1970’s

Net skeletal growth (calcification)
Net photosynthesis (net production)
Australian reef metabolism work
• Large dataset thanks to autosamplers and autotitrators
• Strong diel cycles in calcification/dissolution
• Provisional conclusion: Ωarag can explain some of the variance in δATunaccounted for by T & PAR
