Hi all, Doug’s note yesterday sent a link to some of the recent press coverage on corals at Bikini Atoll. Zoe Richards et al. described a high diversity of Bikini Island corals in 2008
(http://nras-conservation.org/nraslibrary/Richards-MPB.pdf <http://nras-conservation.org/nraslibrary/Richards-MPB.pdf>)

We found some of those same corals last year and sampled some of the biggest Porites mounds for future measures of mutation rate. 

best
Steve
