Stress hardening and acclimatization in Montipora capitata
As ocean temperatures rise phenotypic plasticity will play an increasingly important role in coral health. Using ten genotypes of Montipora capitata, we examined if pre-exposure... -
Sequencing data from key Hawaiian coral species
Genome and transcriptome sequencing data from key Hawaiian coral species that was used to construct reference genome assemblies and to predict protein-coding genes. -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and calcification rate during mesocosm experimen...
A long-term (10 months) controlled experiment was conducted to test the impact of increased partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2) on common calcifying coral reef organisms.... -
Montipora White Syndrome Microbiome Data
16SrRNA microbial sequencing results from the coral, Montipora capitata. Samples were taken from three locations to assess differences in microbial community composition. The... -
Comparison of three bisulfite sequencing methods on two reef building corals
Genome-wide DNA methylation studies using bisulfite sequencing have been hampered by high costs and potential biases due to methods in non-model organisms. To improve... -
Montipora capitata meta-transcriptome sequencing during thermal stress
The coral holobiont forms the foundation of reef ecosystems and its study is crucial for understanding coral resilience to anthropogenic climate change. Over a five-week period,... -
Montipora capitata holobiont bacterial 16S rRNA sequencing
Sequencing of prokaryotic 16S rRNA (V3V4 multivariable region) from four Montipora capitata coral colonies collected in Kaneohe Bay, Hawaii, that were exposed to thermal stress.... -
Montipora capitata bleached/nonbleached pair sequencing
Sequence data pertaining to Multi-locus selection under thermal stress increases population-wide larval and juvenile heat tolerance in a reef-building... -
ddRAD sequencing of Montipora capitata
ddRAD sequencing of Montipora capitata from 30 sites in Kaneohe Bay, Oahu, Hawaii -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and coral physiology in 22-month mesocosm experi...
This dataset includes physiological parameters of three Hawaiian coral species (Porites compressa, Porites lobata, and Montipora capitata) over 22-month mesocosm experiment. The... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and net calcification, gross photosynthesis, and...
Ocean warming and acidification can have negative implications on coral reefs. This mechanistic study aims to evaluate the proximal causes of the observed negative response of... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and Montipora capitata and Porites compressa phy...
Following natural thermal stress in two consecutive years (2014 and 2015), we evaluated the effects of feeding and simulated ocean acidification on the physiological recovery of... -
Coral-algae metabolism and diurnal changes in the CO2-carbonate system of bul...
Precise measurements were conducted in continuous flow seawater mesocosms located in full sunlight that compared metabolic response of coral, coral-macroalgae and macroalgae... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and calcification mechanisms of three Hawaiian c...
Here, we used boron-based geochemical proxies (δ11B, B/Ca) to investigate how three common Hawaiian coral species (Montipora capitata, Porites compressa, Porites lobata)... -
Unraveling the genetic structure of individual polyps and colonies of the Haw...
Genomic variation in stony corals remains poorly understood with population genetic data implicating processes such as chimerism and genetic mosaicism in colony evolution. Here... -
RNAseq of Montipora capitata and Pocillopora acuta using two library preparat...
RNA sequences from two coral species, Montipora capitata and Pocillopora acuta, to evaluate the effect of rRNA depletion versus polyA selection library preparation on gene... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and the impacts of expected near-future climate ...
Here, we present a two-year experimental study examining the responses of entire mesocosm coral reef communities to warming (+2 °C), acidification (−0.2 pH units), and combined... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and calcification data for widespread scope for ...
Here, we take advantage of the ability to sample genetically distinct coral colonies (genets) to produce genetically identical clonal fragments (ramets) and use an identical... -
Reciprocal transplant coral growth rates for Porites compressa and Montipora ...
This datasets consists of growth rates for coral fragments from the species Porites compressa and Montipora capitata in Kāneʻohe Bay, Oʻahu, Hawaiʻi, 2018. A reciprocal... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and calcifying fluid carbonate chemistry, calcif...
Ocean acidification (OA) is a pressing threat to reef-building corals, but it remains poorly understood how coral calcification is inhibited by OA and whether corals could...
