“…A maximum velocity of 25 cm/s in region ≤ 1 m and an exponential decrease up to 25 m below which flow velocity is set to 0. This is consistent with direct observations from exposed algal flat (Davies and Hopley, 1983), and maximum velocities (> 50 cm/s) beyond which branching corals are susceptible to breakage (Baldock et al, 2014).…”

“…While some studies have examined net water flow as it varies across whole reefs (Davies and Hopley, 1983) very few studies have examined the effect of water movement on corals themselves in a variety of environments (Sebens et al, 2003;Baldock et al, 2014) and even so, quantitative data on water energy thresholds for assemblages are non-existent. A high flow velocity threshold exists for some corals, beyond which they break (Baldock et al, 2014), however the reduction in coral growth in response to water flow is poorly studied.…”

“…A maximum velocity of 25 cm s −1 in region ≤ 1 m and an exponential decrease up to 25 m below which flow velocity is set to 0. This is consistent with direct observations from exposed algal flat (Davies and Hopley, 1983) and maximum velocities (> 50 cm s −1 ) beyond which branching corals are susceptible to breakage (Baldock et al, 2014). With specific data on the optimal flow environment for specific corals lacking, assumptions about thresholds for distinct coral assemblages are inferred from boundary conditions.…”

“…The task of finding this set of parameters that best describes a specific reef site and core data is challenging for several reasons. Firstly, empirical estimates of environmental tolerance thresholds of given assemblages are scarce in the scientific literature making their estimation difficult (Camoin et al, 2012;Baldock et al, 2014;Dechnik et al, 2017). Therefore, results interpreted from the modelled environmental threshold represent hypotheses that must be tested and validated against additional real, physical measurements on reefs.…”
