🪸 Coral Life-Cycle Lab: From Planula to Colony with a Stage Matrix

Follow a reef plot year by year: larvae settle as polyps, grow into juveniles, branching colonies and mature heads. A four-stage projection matrix gives the growth rate, stable stage mix and the transitions that matter most, under heat stress, acidification and settlement habitat quality.
