Diver predicts coral spawning 

By RON YOUNGBLOOD

KIHEI -- Curiosity mentored by a veteran diver-photographer and sharpened by
hundreds of hours leading scuba tours has led to a`remarkable'' discovery about
the islands' reef life.

For 13 years, Pauline Fiene-Severns carefully noted underwater observations
collected while working with biologist/underwater photographer Mike Severns,
her husband and founder of a dive company. It all led to being able to predict
the dates and times cauliflower coral will spawn.
