The distribution of the scleractinian coral Lophelia pertusa around the Faroe islands and the relation to internal tidal mixing
Abstract
A list of 138 positions with records of Lophelia pertusa is compiled from all published and unpublished investigations in the area including material from the BIOFAR research programme. In addition, Solenosmilia variabilis, another species of branching coral new to the area is reported. The Lophelia records are from areas that are dominated by the northeastern Atlantic water (NEA W) and in depths from 200 to c. 1000 m. The highest abundance of Lophelia tends to be in the depth range where the bottom slope is critical to internal waves of semidiurnal frequency. The causal link behind this is suggested to be an increase of food availability either through higher primary production at the surface or by a redistribution of suspended particles in the bottom mixed layer.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
