Joshua’s research looks at how storms and the waves they generate shape coral reef communities on the Great Barrier Reef.  He does this by using engineering equations to calculate which coral species are better at withstanding forces generated by extremely large waves. The strength of different corals depends on their various sizes, shapes, and building materials.
