A palmata rings/new website

[Dana Williams]

Hi all- The link to the images I mentioned before has changed:
http://199.242.233.4/HTMLdocs/MolassesReef.htm
The Southeast Fisheries Science Center launched its new website
(http://www.sefsc.noaa.gov/) yesterday making the old link invalid...
sorry for the inconvenience and hopefully there will be no difficulties
with the new link.
Also- a second survey of the rings on Wednesday showed that some seemed
to have disappeared (recovered normal color) and new ones have formed,
possibly supporting the diagnosis of "Ring-Bleaching" as suggested by
Andy Bruckner and Jaime Garzon Ferreria, and documented by Kobluk and
Lysenko (Bull Mar Sci, 541(1):142-150) in Bonaire 1992.
