Connectivity modelling identifies sources and sinks of coral recruitment within reef clusters

This study uses biophysical modelling to estimate coral larval connectivity estimates within the Moore Reef cluster, northern Great Barrier Reef, for the annual spawning events of Acropora corals in 2015, 2016 and 2017. Moore_2015_simple.nc, Moore_2016_simple.nc and Moore_2017_simple.nc contain the hydrodynamic data for the Moore Reef cluster. Moore_grid.nc contains the Moore Reef cluster grids data and Moore_spatial.csv contain the centroids of spatial polygons in the Moore Reef cluster. sysdata.rda contains GBR1 grids data, u_spring.rds and u_gbr1.rds contain mean surface velocities for Moore Reef cluster and GBR1 domain. The transfer probability matrix data contain the connectivity matrices for the days and years that were considered.
