[Eukaryotic viruses encode the ribosomal protein eL40] - NCBI accession metadata for Eukaryotic viruses encoding ribosomal protein eL40 from samples collected on KM1419 and KM1108 from Mar 2011 to Sep 2014 (Giant viruses in the open ocean: Is large size adaptive where cells are scarce?)

Summary:
This dataset contains sample collection metadata, as well as GenBank accessions and relevant Bioproject numbers for FloV-SA2 samples collected on KM1419 and KM1108 at Station ALOHA from Mar 2011 to Sep 2014.

This study analyzes the genome of FloV-SA2 (phylum Nucleocytoviricota), a cultured marine virus isolated  from open ocean seawater in the Pacific Ocean using a marine microalga strain (UHM3020) in the genus Florenciella (class Dictyochophyceae) as a host. The analysis highlights unique features of the genome, including the encoding of a ribosomal protein (eL40) and a group II viral rhodopsin. The research explores the affiliations and possible origins of these genes, supported by metagenomic and metatranscriptomic data indicating the presence and expression of eL40 in other giant viruses. This study expands the understanding of the metabolic versatility of eukaryoviruses and proposes new mechanisms by which these viruses can manipulate host resources and energy.

[Experiment 1: the effect of relatedness and density on survival and growth.] - The effect of relatedness and density on survival and growth of Bugula neritina in the Gulf of Mexico, Florida from  October to December 2021. (Consequences of kin structure in benthic marine systems)

Summary:
In the Gulf of Mexico, Florida, we performed a series of field experiments using an experimentally tractable species (the bryozoan Bugula neritina) to test the hypothesis that the density, spatial arrangement, and genetic relatedness of neighbours differentially affect survival, growth, reproduction, paternity, and sperm dispersal. We manipulated the density and relatedness of neighbours and found that increased density reduced survival but not growth rate, and that there was no effect of relatedness on survival, growth, or fecundity, in contrast to previous studies. We also manipulated the distances to the nearest neighbour and used genetic markers to assign paternity within known mother–offspring groups to estimate how proximity affects mating success. Distance to the nearest neighbour did not affect the number of settlers produced, the paternity share, or the degree of multiple paternity. Overall, larger than expected sperm dispersal led to high multiple paternity, regardless of the distance to the nearest neighbour.

[EXPORTS NA nuts and TM field data] - Dissolved trace metal and macronutrient concentrations rom field samples collected during the EXPORTS North Atlantic campaign at the Porcupine Abyssal Plain-Sustained Observatory (PAP-SO) site on board the RRS Discovery (DY131) in May 2021 (Collaborative Research: Diatoms, Food Webs and Carbon Export - Leveraging NASA EXPORTS to Test the Role of Diatom Physiology in the Biological Carbon Pump)

Summary:
This dataset includes dissolved trace metal (manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel, copper, cadmium, zinc, lead) and macronutrient (nitrate+nitrite, phosphate, silicic acid, nitrite) concentration data from field samples collected during the EXPORTS North Atlantic campaign at the Porcupine Abyssal Plain-Sustained Observatory (PAP-SO) site on board the RRS Discovery (DY131). These data were primarily collected opportunistically during the course of water collection for incubation experiments (see separate dataset for incubations), and provide field context for the shipboard incubation experiments as well as temporal characterization of a retentive anticyclonic eddy occupied over the course of the cruise.

This research focuses on the vertical export of the carbon associated with a major group of phytoplankton, the diatoms in the North Atlantic near the Porcupine Abyssal Plain. The major objective is to understand how diatom community composition and the prevailing nutrient conditions create taxonomic differences in metabolic state that combine to direct diatom taxa to different carbon export pathways. The focus is on diatoms, given their large contribution to global marine primary productivity and carbon export which translates into a significant contribution to the biogeochemical cycling of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), iron (Fe) and silicon (Si). It is hypothesized that the type and degree of diatom physiological stress are vital aspects of ecosystem state that drive export. To test this hypothesis, combined investigator expertise in phytoplankton physiology, genomics, and trace element chemistry is used to assess the rates of nutrient use and the genetic composition and response of diatom communities, with measurements of silicon and iron stress to evaluate stress as a predictor of the path of diatom carbon export. The EXPORTS field campaign in the North Atlantic sampled a retentive eddy over nearly a month in May 2021, which coincided with the decline of the North Atlantic Spring Bloom.

[Fatty acid profiles] - Fatty acid profiles of M. menidia females and their unfertilized eggs. (Collaborative research: Understanding the effects of acidification and hypoxia within and across generations in a coastal marine fish)

Summary:
Gas chromatography was used to quantify the absolute (mg g dry weight-1) and
relative concentrations (% of total) of 27 FAs for each of 5 females (whole
individual) and their unfertilized eggs (~ 1 ml). Samples were first dried and
then homogenized in a solution of chloroform-methanol (2:1 v/v) and
tricosanoic acid (23:0) as an internal standard for quantification of mg
g\u22121\u00a0dry mass of fatty acids. Lipids were cold-extracted from
approximately 50 mg of dry mass. A Shimadzu GC-2014 gas chromatograph set with
a Phenomenex ZB-WAX plus capillary column (30\u00a0m long; 0.53 mm ID; 1.0 um
thick) was used to quantify FAs, and individual FAs were identified by
comparison to commercial standards (Supelco, Inc).\u00a0

[Fe, Pu partitioning and organic biopolymers] - Partitioning of iron and plutonium in exopolymeric substances and intracellular biopolymers: a comparison study between the coccolithophore Emiliania huxleyi and the diatom Skeletonema costatum (Biopolymers as carrier phases for selected natural radionuclides (of Th, Pa, Pb, Po, Be) in diatoms and coccolithophores)

Summary:
Iron (Fe), a micronutrient for algal growth, and plutonium (Pu), an anthropogenic radionuclide, share some common features. This includes similar oceanic distributions when different input modes are taken into account, as well as their chemical behavior, such as a high affinity to natural organic matter (NOM). The NOM produced by various phytoplankton communities can potentially influence Fe cycling in the ocean, and likely also influence the transport behavior of Pu. We conducted laboratory incubation experiments using the coccolithophore Emiliania huxleyi and the diatom Skeletonema costatum, in the presence of 59Fe and 238Pu as radiotracers, in order to differentiate Fe and Pu uptake by extracellular exopolymeric substances (EPS) and intracellular biopolymers. The Fe and Pu distributions in select organic compound classes including proteins, total carbohydrates (TCHO) and uronic acids (URA) produced by these two types of phytoplankton were compared. Our results indicated that most of the Fe and Pu (>95%) were found concurrently concentrated in E. huxleyi-derived non-attached EPS, while much less (<2%) was present in the intracellular fraction of E. huxleyi. By contrast, in the diatom S. costatum, both Fe and Pu distribution was EPS > intracellular biopolymers > outer cell covering (i.e., frustule). In fact, over 50% of Fe was concentrated in S. costatum-derived attached EPS and intracellular biopolymers. The diatom derived Fe-EPS complexes were more hydrophobic, with stronger tendency to aggregate in seawater. Fe binding to biopolymers in both E. huxleyi and S. costatum cultures was related to URA concentrations, but the overall distribution of URA between these two phytoplankton species was different. Our findings suggest that the presence of URA in S. costatum cellular surface (i.e., attached EPS) and its intracellular fraction could be an indicator for the Fe transport from the surrounding seawater to the diatom cells. However, for the coccolithophore E. huxleyi, Fe appeared not to be efficiently taken up during its growth. Instead, the more hydrophilic non-attached EPS (i.e., low protein/TCHO ratio) produced by E. huxleyi could have stabilized Fe in the colloidal form as Fe-EPS complexes. Similar partitioning behavior of Fe and Pu suggests that Pu isotopes can potentially serve as a tracer for the Fe biogeochemistry in the ocean.

[Fe-Labeling Expt: E.coli and phage T4 or T5] - Iron concentrations of phage from experiments of iron-labelled E. coli infected with T4 and T5 bacteriophage, 2018 and 2019. (EAGER: Iron-Virus Interactions in the Ocean)

Summary:
This data was collected as part of a study investigating the source of iron to bacteriophage (phage for short, or viruses that infect and kill bacteria) progeny. Evidence from a phage that infects E. coli shows iron incorporated into the tail fiber structure. This study aims at identifying whether the source of the iron is environmental or bacterially derived. E. coli bacterial cultures were grown in minimal media spiked with 10 \u00b5M 57FeSO4 then infected with phage T4 or T5. The phages were purified by methods of centrifugation, filtration, density-dependent ultracentrifugation, and dialyzing. The resulting phage fractions were quantified by SYBR epifluorescence microscopy and metal concentrations were measured on an ELEMENT XR ICP-MS.

[Fear behavior with predators: Nucella] - Behavioral data of Nucella lamellosa in the presence of predators within laboratory mesocosms at Bodega Marine Lab in 2018 (Trophic consequences of ocean acidification: Intertidal sea star predators and their grazer prey)

Summary:
To examine the intensity of anti-predatory behavior of both Tegula funebralis and Nucella lamellosa, we measured the proportion of time individual snails spend above the waterline in the presence and absence of their predator species, Pisaster ochraceus and Cancer productus. Data from this experiment are used to calculate estimated predation rates for snails that do not behaviorally respond to their predators, which are used to determine the impact anti-predatory responses have on the strength of trophic cascades. The experiment was conducted within laboratory mesocosms at Bodega Marine Lab in 2018 and 2019.

[Feeding Trials] - Feeding trials: Effects of diversity in feeding trials, conducted at Bodgea Marine Laboratory, using detritus from eelgrass (Zostera marina) genotypes (clones) as a food source and either one or a combination of invertebrate grazers (Connecting genetic diversity to ecosystem functioning: links between genetic diversity, relatedness and trait variation in a seagrass community)

Summary:
Seagrass meadows are among the world's most productive ecosystems, and as in many other systems, genetic diversity is correlated with increased production. However, only a small fraction of seagrass production is directly consumed, and instead much of the secondary production is fueled by the detrital food web. Here, we study how plant genotype influences detrital consumption. We used three common mesograzers\u2014an amphipod, Ampithoe lacertosa, an isopod, Idotea resecata, and a polychaete, Platynereis bicanaliculata. Each grazer consumed eelgrass detritus at rates greater than live eelgrass or macroalgae. This detrital consumption, however, was not spread evenly over leaves shed from different eelgrass clones. Palatability and consumption varied because of genotype specific differences in leaf texture, secondary metabolites (phenolics), and nutritional quality (nitrogen). Further, detritus derived from some eelgrass genotypes was palatable to all grazers, while detritus from other genotypes was preferentially consumed by only one grazer species. These data are illustrated in figures 2 and 3 of Reynolds et al., 2017 (DOI:10.1111/oik.04471).

[FeOA Incubation trace metals and pH] - Dissolved trace metal concentrations, nickel speciation, and pH in shipboard incubations conducted on FeOA project cruise SKQ202209S on the R/V Sikuliaq between June 4 2022 to July 1 2022 in the NE Pacific. (Collaborative Research: The Effect of Ocean Acidification on Fe Availability to Phytoplankton in Coastal and Oceanic Waters of the Eastern North Pacific)

Summary:
This dataset includes the concentrations of total dissolved trace metals (manganese, iron, added iron-57, nickel, copper, zinc), of labile dissolved nickel, and pH measured in samples collected from phytoplankton shipboard incubation experiments conducted on the FeOA cruise SKQ202209S on R/V Sikuliaq in the NE Pacific from June to July 2022.
This project investigates the effects of ocean acidification on the associations between iron and organic ligands in seawater and on iron bioavailability to marine phytoplankton communities. The project used a combination of shipboard incubation experiments and depth profiles to characterize iron speciation and cycling across coastal upwelling, oligotrophic open ocean, and iron-limited subarctic oceanographic regimes in the NE Pacific. Surface seawater was incubated at pH of 8.1, 7.6, and 7.1 with natural iron and with dissolved iron amendments in order to investigate interactions between pH and iron bioavailability across the different regimes. Understanding how pH influences iron and its relationship with ligands provides important information for assessing the impacts of ocean acidification on primary production and biogeochemical processes.

Summary:
This dataset includes fertilization success rates from gamete age assays using eggs and sperm from Porites lobata corals in April-May 2023. Porites lobata colonies were collected from study sites in the Rock Islands Southern Lagoon in the Republic of Palau. Colonies were isolated in individual plastic containers at the Palau International Coral Reef Center. Sperm from selected male colonies were pooled in a single container, and eggs were gently poured into this pool, allowing fertilization to commence. Fertilization success was evaluated visually 2-3 hours after fertilization began by observing a sub-sample of the eggs from each cross under a dissecting microscope and counting whole (undivided) eggs and dividing embryos.

[FGB fate tracking] - Fate data for corals sampled at Flower Garden Banks from March 2023 to July 2024 (Collaborative Research: RAPID: A multi-scale approach to predicting coral disease spread: leveraging an outbreak on coral-dense isolated reefs)

Summary:
These data summarize the fates of sampled corals from an unknown coral disease outbreak at the Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary. In late August of 2022, an unidentified multi-species acute tissue loss disease with signs and species susceptibility characteristics reminiscent of white plague and/or Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease (SCTLD) was documented at East and West Bank in the Flower Garden Banks (FGB, northwest Gulf of Mexico, GoM) by NOAA divers. Our interdisciplinary research team of ecologists, connectivity and disease modelers, microbiologists, and coral immunologists are using photomosaics and colony fate-tracking, molecular and microscopy approaches, as well as modeling of disease reservoirs and dispersal to better understand characteristics of this outbreak. A scientific cruise occurred March 5-10, 2023 to mark and collect samples from diseased and healthy corals at one site, Buoy 5, within the Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary. Thirty-two stony coral colonies were tagged for sampling. Tagging consisted of hammering a uniquely numbered cattle tag into adjacent dead substrate with a masonry nail. A total of 96 samples were collected from the 32 tagged colonies (species: Orbicella franksi, Porites astreoides, Pseudodiploria strigosa). A second scientific cruise took place June 30 to July 4, 2024, when sampled corals were relocated and their current health status was recorded. This dataset includes the health status of each coral at the time of sampling in March 2023, and its health characteristics in July 2024 if it was found.

[FHLOO] - Seawater data (2018-2024) recorded from the Friday Harbor Laboratories Ocean Observatory (FHLOO) (FSML: Instrumentation at UW Friday Harbor Laboratories for Studies of the Biological Impacts of Ocean Acidification and Ocean Change)

Summary:
The FHL Ocean Observatory (FHLOO) is a multi-sensor surface array in the San Juan Islands archipelago in the Salish Sea. Conditions in the Salish Sea region are subject to oceanic influences from the Northeast Pacific Ocean combined with freshwater input from the Pacific Northwest. This dynamic region is particularly vulnerable to ocean acidification events driven by elevated carbon dioxide concentration associated with ocean upwelling and is already experiencing pH ranges that other areas will not see for many decades. Data produced by this project may be of interest to chemical and biological oceanographers, and climate scientists interested in the role of biogeochemistry in the global/regional climate system. This dataset includes pH, pCO2, temperature, salinity, and dissolved oxygen data recorded from 2018-2024.

[filter tracer content] - Content of nitrogen and carbon in tracer filters from Cape Flattery, WA from 2010-2011 (Regenerated Nitrogen project) (The Role of Regenerated Nitrogen for Rocky Shore Productivity)

Summary:
We evaluated the role of mussels by adding 15N-labeled NH4+ to an assemblage
of tidepools where they were either present at natural abundance levels, or
absent through manual removal. \u00a0The role of phototrophs was separately
examined by conducting these experiments both during the day and at night.
\u00a0The tidal height of pools varied between 1.2 to 1.5 m above Mean Lower
Low Water (MLLW). Tidepools were thus isolated from each other as well as the
nearshore environment during the low tide period when experiments were
conducted. Each experiment included 4 to 5 mussel removal (MR) tidepools
(since 2002) and 4 to 5 mussel control (MC) tidepools with natural mussel
densities. \u00a0In June 2010, we performed daytime NH4+ tracer experiments
and in August 2010 nighttime experiments using the same tidepools. The
following year (July 2011) these experiments were repeated with the addition
of bottle incubations (see below) to evaluate the effects of suspended
tidepool components and extended sampling for 6 days after the initial 15N
addition to test for long-term retention of NH4+. \u00a0During the 2011
experiments, unforeseen rain reduced the salinity in some pools by up to 51%,
and we have attempted to correct for the expected dilution of NH4+ in our
tidepool rate calculations.

Because isotope enrichment levels were relatively low, we used the
conventional delta notation instead of atom% to describe variations in 15N
enrichment (where delta-15NH4+ = {(15N:14N sample \u00f7 15N:14N standard)
-1}\u00d71000\u2030, where the standard is atmospheric N2. \u00a0Tracer
labeled ammonium chloride (15NH4Cl) was added to the pools to approximate a
1000\u2030 enrichment in 2010 (doubling the 15N-NH4+ concentration) and a
2000\u2030 enrichment in 2011(tripling the 15N-NH4+ concentration). 15N
natural abundance is only 0.365% and these tracer additions thus had a
negligible effect on the overall NH4+ concentrations increasing them by only
~0.4% and ~0.8%, respectively. Tidepool volumes were estimated
spectrophotometrically using varying concentrations of food dye (Pfister
1995). Together with estimates of NH4+ concentration (from 2009 data), we
estimated the tracer addition required to achieve the targeted 15N
enrichments. However, the actual initial enrichments varied substantially,
684.4 - 2406.4\u2030 in 2010 and 781.4 - 3880.2\u2030 in 2011, likely due to
error in tidepool volume estimation and natural variations in initial NH4+
concentrations. Fortunately, we sampled immediately following each tracer
addition allowing for the determination of the true initial 15N enrichment.
\u00a0

Prior to tracer addition at ebb tide, 100 mL of tidepool water was syringe-
filtered (Whatman GF/F) into separate HDPE bottles for natural abundance
15NH4+ and concentration determination. \u00a0To each pool, tracer 15NH4+ was
then added and distributed by stirring with a stick. Water samples were
immediately collected for measuring initial 15N enrichment and subsequently at
2, 4, and 6 hour intervals to determine isotope and concentration time
courses. All water samples were frozen until analysis. Tidepool oxygen, pH,
and temperature (Hach HQ4D) were also collected at ~ 2 h intervals throughout
the experiment.

In 2011 we also assessed the contribution of the suspended microbial community
to NH4+ cycling by enclosing tidepool water in a 250 mL transparent
polycarbonate incubation bottle. Following tracer addition, the bottle was
filled, then left to float in the tidepool for the duration of the experiment.
Samples from bottles were filtered as described both immediately after
containment and at the end of the experiment (~6 h later).

We assessed macroalgal contribution to NH4+ removal by transplanting two
tidepool-dwelling algae species. \u00a0Prionitis sternbergii were sampled 2
weeks prior to the experiment for baseline natural abundance 15N values and
transplanted into the pools with Z-Spar Epoxy (Pfister 2007). On the day of
the experiment, the red-alga, Corallina vancouveriensis from a single source
patch, was also sampled for 15N natural abundance, inserted into pieces of
Styrofoam, and floated in each pool.

At the end of each experiment (~6 h sampling point), we sampled tidepool
particulate organic material (POM) by filtering through combusted GF/F filters
until they clogged (~ 600 mL), comparing these samples with POM similarly
sampled from the immediate nearshore. \u00a0Floating Corallina spp. samples
were collected into clean Eppendorf tubes, and similar sized pieces of
Prionitis spp. were collected from each pool into clean foil packets.\u00a0
 We evaluated the extent of longer-term 15N tracer retention in 2011 by
sampling tidepool water, POM and transplanted Prionitis 1, 3, and 6 days
following tracer addition. We sampled at ebb tide and at again at slack water
just prior to high tide on the first day after tracer addition (that is, 24 h
later) and at slack water prior to high tide on Day 3 and 6.\u00a0

Summary:
This dataset describes the collection locations of individuals of three fish species (Red Drum Sciaenops ocellatus, Southern Flounder Paralichthys lethostigma, and Atlantic Croaker Micropogonias undulatus) in the Matagorda Bay region of Texas in the northwestern Gulf of Mexico. Fish carcasses were obtained from anglers at boat docks, fish cleaning stations, or other locations in the region. Fish were also obtained from bait shops where the proprietors verified the fish were sourced from the Matagorda Bay study region. These fish will be dissected to subsample muscle tissue, eye lenses, and otoliths for chemical analysis to reconstruct environmental histories (trace element proxies for hypoxia, salinity, and other parameters), mercury concentrations, and stable isotopes to reconstruct food web interactions.

Summary:
The effect of changing levels of scuba diver disturbance, from a low during the 2020 COVID 19 lockdown to normal levels a year later (2021) was measured to test the hypothesis that fish would be less wary when during the lockdown. The Flight Initiation Distance (FID) data, reported here in meters indicate how close a diver can approach an individual fish before it swims away (flees). 2,151 measurements of FID are reported here for a diverse array of reef fish and shark species at sites in the central Galapagos Islands. These data were collected by Dr.s Robert Lamb and Franz Smith in collaboration with PI Jon Witman.
