Figure 1. Study sites at Yawzi Point (9-m depth) (A) and Tektite (14-m depth) (B) in 2016.

Figure 1

Pictures (A, B) show high abundance of Gorgonia ventalina, with representative colonies below: (C) symmetric fan with no mortality, (D) asymmetric fan with small amounts of mortality, and (E) ragged fan with extensive partial mortality. Ragged fans accounted for 10–12% of fans over the 7-year study, but by year, they accounted for 0% (Yawzi Point in 2015) to 24% (Tektite in 2018) of fans. Photo credits: P.J. Edmunds.
