it is presently unknown how specific environmental cues function together with endogenous clock mechanism to ensure the accurate timing of gamete release. Our results show that moonlight is an important environmental cue for mass spawning synchrony, and we describe the potential mechanisms underlying the ability of corals to sense environmental cues and trigger signalling cascades that lead to gamete release.
