attribute NC_GLOBAL acquisition_description String Coral cores (n57) were collected in July 2013 from the shallow reef at
Kahekili in Kaanapali, West Maui, Hawaii, from scleractinian Porites lobata
(Figure 1) in water depths of between 1 and 3 m and in the vicinity of
brackish SGD "seeps" near Kahekili Beach Park (Glenn et al., 2013),
approximately 0.5 km southwest of the LWRF (Table 1). All cores were collected
from living Porites spp., except for adjacent to the seep where the coral
colony was dead upon collection. Colonies were selected based on several
criteria including distance from shore, distance from seep, coral shape, and
water depth. Metrics of coral reef health (bioerosion,calcification, and
growth rate) were quantified at the Woods Hole Oceanographic
Institution\u2019s CT Scanning Facility (Crook et al., 2013) where CT scan
images (supporting information Figure S1) were used to calculate the
proportion of the skeleton eroded (>1 mm boring diameter) by boring
organisms and calculated as the total volume of CaCO3 removed relative to the
total volume of the individual Porites coral core (Barkley et al., 2015;
DeCarlo et al., 2015) using coral CT (DeCarlo & Cohen, 2016). The average
growth rate reported in this study is the average linear extension rate and
respective standard deviation for the length of cores analyzed per site.
Pearson correlation coefficients and respective p values were calculated in
Excel. Significance levels were tested at the 95% and 90% confidence level.
The number of years for analysis ranged from the upper 10\u201326 years and
was calculated as linear extension (mm) per year. The range (i.e., length of
core analyzed) reflects the fact that the quality/preservation of banding was
not consistent across the collection sites due to differences in boring and
erosion (supporting information Figure S1). In comparison to measured
bioerosion rates, predicted bioerosion rates were calculated using the
equation from DeCarlo et al. (2015) where bioerosion rate5211.96 *
Xarag143.52. Coral life spans were calculated based on annual growth rate and
core length. Coral life span for the dead specimen was determined by comparing
bomb-derived radiocarbon (14C) values measured at five depth intervals to
reference bomb-curves from Hawaii (Andrews et al., 2016). Samples were
prepared for Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS) radiocarbon(14C) dating at
the National Ocean Sciences Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (NOSAMS) facility.

Coral nitrogen isotope (d15N) values were determined by collecting skeletal
material (\u0003300 mg) from the upper 4.0\u20135.6 mm of growth.
Approximately 18 mg of material was placed into tin capsules with an
approximately equivalent mass of vanadium oxide (V2O5) catalyst to ensure
complete combustion for analysis using a Costech elemental
analyzer\u2014Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry (EA-IRMS) at the University of
California at Santa Cruz and the USGS Stable Isotope Lab to determine d15N
composition. Analytical uncertainty of0.16&is reported based on replicate
analysis of the international nitrogen standard, acetanilide.

Sampling for water at the primary seep site and in adjacent coastal waters was
conducted in September 2014 and March 2016. In 2014, sampling of the submarine
springs was conducted using a piezometer point directly inserted into the
primary seep site (Swarzenski et al., 2012) and a 12 V peristaltic pump during
both high and low tide (supporting information Table S1). At each sampling
site, the salinity and temperature of the seep water and bottom water was
recorded using calibrated YSI multiprobes. Seawater sampling in March 2016 was
conducted near the coral sites every 4 h over a 6 day period for nutrients and
carbonate chemistry variables. A peristaltic pump was used to pump seawater
from the seafloor and temperature and salinity were recorded using a
calibrated YSI multimeter. In situ temperatures were also recorded
fromSolonist CTD Divers installed at each sampling tube (Prouty et al., 2017).

attribute NC_GLOBAL projects_0_description String Text from the NSF award abstract:
Human carbon dioxide emissions are causing measureable changes in ocean conditions. Many of these changes negatively affect coral reef ecosystems, reducing their ability to provide food, arable land, tourist destinations and coastline protection for hundreds of millions of people worldwide. This project focuses on the effects of enhanced stratification, caused by ocean warming, on the growth of reef-building corals across the Caribbean and Bermuda. Enhanced stratification impacts primary productivity which generates food for corals. Initial data generated by the investigators suggest that Atlantic coral growth has declined in the last 5 decades in response to these changes. A laboratory-based experiment is designed to test this hypothesis. If verified, the projected decline in Atlantic primary productivity through the 21st century could potentially rival and will certainly exacerbate the effects of warming and ocean acidification on coral reef ecosystems across the North Atlantic. Support is provided for graduate research, and undergraduate participation is facilitated through the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution Summer Fellowship and the Bermuda Institute of Ocean Sciences-Princeton Environmental Institute Summer Internship Programs. The results will be presented at national and international meetings and disseminated in a timely manner through peer-reviewed publications. All data produced through this program will be archived in the Biological and Chemical Oceanographic Data Management Office.
Anthropogenic climate change has emerged as a principle threat to coral reef survival in the 21st century. In addition to ocean warming and acidification, global climate models project enhanced stratification of the upper oceans through the 21st century and a consequent decline in productivity, by up to 50%, in the North Atlantic. This project employs controlled laboratory manipulation experiments to test the link between productivity and growth of the dominant reef-building corals across the Caribbean and Bermuda. Preliminary data generated by the investigators, including multi-decade long coral growth histories and nitrogen isotope ratios of coral tissue and skeleton, suggest that coral growth across the region has declined over the past 50 years in response to productivity changes already underway. If the link between ocean circulation, productivity decline, and coral growth is verified, the projected 21st century decline in productivity could rival and will certainly exacerbate the effects of warming and ocean acidification on North Atlantic coral reef ecosystems.
