This award will support collaborative research between Prof. Thomas             Frost of the University of Wisconsin, Madison, and Dr. Clive Wilkinson          of the Australian Institute of Marine Science, Townsville, Queensland.          The investigators will study the modeling of the interaction between            autotrophy and heterotrophy in symbiotic associations by measuring              autotrophic and heterotrophic activities for sponges, clams, and                corals on the Great Barrier Reef and comparing measurements with                models that have been developed by the U.S. investigator.                                                                                                       The project combines the expertise of the U.S. investigator in the              development of modeling approaches, with that of his Australian                 collaborator in the field of symbiotic effects in sponges.  In                  addition to the light it can shed on the basic ecology of algal-                invertebrate symbiosis, results of this research can be expanded to             include a variety of mixotrophic organisms, thus increasing our                 understanding of the ecological effects of symbiosis in general.
