Detailed Description
Fluorescence functional groups. These 15 spectra denote the most common fluorescent emissions measured on Caribbean reefs. Note: All of the stony coral functional groups (1-7) also include a chlorophyll component. Fluorescence intensities are plotted in arbitrary units, and the spectra indicate typical peak-to-peak ratios. See PLoS ONE article for details.
