Seawater carbonate chemistry and fertilization success in an Arctic population of sea urchins

DOI

This study investigates the combined effects of these stressors on the fertilization success of the green sea urchin (Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis) from Kongsfjorden, Svalbard. We exposed gametes to various levels of pH, temperature, and salinity to assess their individual and combined impacts on fertilization performance. This dataset is included in the OA-ICC data compilation maintained in the framework of the IAEA Ocean Acidification International Coordination Centre (see https://oa-icc.ipsl.fr). Original data were downloaded from Norwegian Polar Data Centre (see Source) by the OA-ICC data curator. In order to allow full comparability with other ocean acidification data sets, the R package seacarb (Gattuso et al, 2024) was used to compute a complete and consistent set of carbonate system variables, as described by Nisumaa et al. (2010). In this dataset the original values were archived in addition with the recalculated parameters (see related PI). The date of carbonate chemistry calculation by seacarb is 2026-01-23.
