Water temperature recorded at the Luminao reef flat, Guam, in 2014-2015
This dataset provides water temperature measurements at the Luminao reef flat, Guam, in 2014 to 2015. They were conducted by the Raymundo Lab (University of Guam, Marine... -
Live physiology and tissue biochemistry assessment in Pocillopora acuta after...
In July 2015 specimens of the coral Pocillopora acuta have been sampled at the reef flat Luminao, Guam, at 1-2 m water depth. Larvae released from the mother colonies were... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and the net photosynthesis, gross photosynthesis...
The absorbtion of human-emitted CO2 by the oceans (elevated PCO2) is projected to alter the physiological performance of coral reef organisms by perturbing seawater chemistry... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and coral calcification rates
Estimates of heritability inform evolutionary potential and the likely outcome of many management actions, but such estimates remain scarce for marine organisms. Here, we report... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and calcification, survivorship of coral
Coral reefs have great biological and socioeconomic value, but are threatened by ocean acidification, climate change and local human impacts. The capacity for corals to adapt or... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and tissue biomass composition, calcification of...
Ocean acidification (OA) is predicted to reduce reef coral calcification rates and threaten the long-term growth of coral reefs under climate change. Reduced coral growth at...
