Viability of Sea Fan Populations Impacted by Disease: Recruitment versus Incidence

Table 2

Estimates of life cycle transitions of the demographic model of Gorgonia ventalina presented in (1). The model considers three size classes (small, medium, and large) and two health states (healthy or diseased). Transition probabilities are a product of annual survivorship (), growth (), retrogression (), disease incidence (), and healing (). See text for further explanations.
