Abstract: The life cycle of corals combines a dispersal, larval phase with a sedentary, adult phase. Larvae must find somewhere to settle down, and this process is termed recruitment. In the most comprehensive study yet, carried out on the Great Barrier Reef, one group has shown that recruitment rates vary substantially in various parts of the reef, and do not tally with adult abundances.
