Spatio-temporal variation of Scleractinian coral recruitment on terra-cotta tiles and artificial live rock in Tioman Island, Malaysia

Coral recruitment is a vital natural process in shaping the overall dynamic and spatio-temporal patchiness in coral assemblages. Spatio-temporal coral recruitment pattern on terra-cotta tiles and artificial live rock settlement plates were investigated between April 2012 and September 20...
