We are looking into a rapid, non-invasive, lab-based method to determine
growth on both plate and branching corals. The neutral buoyancy method
does not work well with the small size of our nubbins. We are looking into
photogrammetry as a means to determine growth. I have a few references
that use photography but was wondering if there are any other methods
available or if anyone could provide any helpful tips.
