Daylight and fluorescent images of a Montastrea caverno
Daylight and fluorescent images of a Montastrea cavernosa coral colony growing on the seawall at Ft. Jefferson, Dry Tortugas National Park. The brownish color of the coral in daylight is largely attributable to chlorophyll contained within the symbiotic algae harbored by the coral. The fluorescent image was taken at night using blue LED lights to stimulate

Daylight and fluorescent images of two coral colonies
Daylight and fluorescent images of two coral colonies, Diploria clivosa (left) and Orbicella faveolata (right) growing on the seawall at Ft. Jefferson, Dry Tortugas National Park. The two colonies are separated by an area of dead coral that has been colonized by algae. In the fluorescent image, red corresponds to chlorophyll and green to GFP. Note that
