Chromatophore tissue density and skeletal density banding as a measure of the adaptive response of healthy corals to environmental change
… been drawn between changes in the tissue density of chromatophores and the development of skeletal density bands in “apparently healthy” corals (corals with no outward visible indication of distress or disease). An integrated histological and computed tomography x-ray diffraction (MicroCT) …

Carbon cycling in the Caribbean reef-building coral Orbicella: quantitative evidence for enzymatic control of skeletal density banding and coral-endosymbiont physiological plasticity during seasonal environmental change
… image analyses show that both the cellular density of zooxanthellae and the density of the chromatophores change according to positioning on the reef tract, and therefore levels of irradiance to which the host and endosymbiont are exposed. These results are correlated to the measured change …
