Table 3. Statistical comparisons of the percentage of lesions halted on each coral colony.
Average percentage (± standard error) of halted lesions on each coral colony by treatment are presented for each species. Comparisons for each treatment show p-values from two-tailed t-tests where normality and equal variance assumptions were met, and from Mann-Whitney Rank Sum Tests where they were not. Statistically significant results are highlighted in green.
