Description: 

Relative coral growth pre-treatment. For 86Sr, growth was estimated from changes in buoyant weight (per Holcomb et al., 2010) for the 5 months prior to and the month following the isotope spike. For 135Ba, growth was estimated from changes in buoyant weight for the 2 months prior and one month following isotope exposure.
