"CO2 \\u00d7 temperature manipulations and measurements:  
 For 2 \\u00d7 2 and 3 \\u00d7 2 factorial designs, replicate rearing
containers (20 L) were placed into large temperature-controlled water baths.
Elevated CO2 levels were achieved via gas proportioners (ColeParmer\\u00ae)
mixing air with 100% CO2 (bone dry grade) that was delivered continuously to
the bottom of each replicate rearing container via airstone. To counteract
metabolic CO2 accumulation, control CO2 conditions were achieved by forcing
compressed laboratory air through a series of CO2 stripping units containing
granular soda lime (AirGas\\u00ae), a particle filter (1 \\u00b5m), and then to
each replicate via airstone. Target pH levels were monitored daily using a
handheld pH probes (Orion Ross Ultra pH/ATC Triode with Orion Star A121 pH
Portable Meter; Intellical PHC281 pH Electrode with Hach\\u00ae HQ11D Handheld
pH/ORP Meter) calibrated bi-weekly with 2-point pHNBS references. Continuous
bubbling maintained dissolved oxygen saturation (>8 mg/ DO) in rearing
vessels. Target treatment temperatures were controlled by thermostats
(Aqualogic\\u00ae) which powered chillers (DeltaStar\\u00ae) or glass
submersible heaters to maintain water bath temperatures. For 3 \\u00d7 3
factorial experiments, we developed an automated acidification system composed
of nine discrete recirculation units designed for larval fish rearing. We
designed a LabView (National Instruments\\u00ae) based program to fully
automate the control of seawater chemistry. The software interfaces with the
recirculating units via a data-acquisition module (NI cDAQ-9184, National
Instruments\\u00ae), which controls nine sampling pumps (one per tank) and a
series of gas and water solenoid valves, while receiving input from a central
pH electrode (Hach pHD\\u00ae digital electrode calibrated weekly using 2-point
pHNBS references) and dissolved oxygen probe (Hach LDO\\u00ae Model 2). The
software sequentially assesses the pH conditions in each rearing unit (each
tank once per hour) by pumping water for ~450 seconds through the housing of
the central pH probe, comparing measured pH levels to set-points and then
adjusting levels by bubbling standardized amounts 100% CO2 (bone dry grade,
AirGas\\u00ae) or CO2-stripped air into the sump of each tank. The software
also maintains DO saturation (>8 mg/l) by bubbling in CO2-stripped air.
LabView logs current pH, temperature, and DO conditions before cycling to the
next unit. Temperatures were controlled by thermostats (Aqualogic\\u00ae) that
powered submersible heaters or in-line chillers (DeltaStar\\u00ae).
 
Actual treatment CO2 levels were determined based on measurements of pH,
temperature, salinity, and total alkalinity (AT). Treatment tanks were sampled
three times per experiment for measurements of AT (\\u03bcmol kg-1). Seawater
was siphoned and filtered (to 10 \\u00b5m) into 300 ml borosilicate bottles.
Salinity was measured at the time of sampling using a refractometer. Bottles
were stored at 3\\u02daC and measured for AT within two weeks of sampling using
an endpoint titration (Mettler Toledo\\u00ae\\u00a0G20 Potentiometric Titrator).
Methodological accuracy (within \\u00b11%) of alkalinity titrations were
verified and calibrated using Dr. Andrew Dickson\\u2019s (University of
California San Diego, Scripps Institution of Oceanography) certified reference
material for AT in seawater. The partial pressure of CO2 (pCO2,; \\u03bcatm)
was calculated in CO2SYS (V2.1,
[http://cdiac.ornl.gov/ftp/co2sys](\\\\\"http://cdiac.ornl.gov/ftp/co2sys\\\\\"))
based on measured AT, pHNBS, temperature, and salinity using K1 and K2
constants from Mehrbach et al. (1973)\\u00a0 refit by Dickson and Millero
(1987)\\u00a0 and Dickson (1990) for KHSO4.
 
Field sampling and experimental designs:  
 Collections of wild, spawning ripe Atlantic silversides were made during
high tide 1-3 days prior to full or new moons during the species spawning
season. Adults were caught with a 30 m \\u00d7 2 m beach seine from local salt
marshes and transported live to our laboratory facilities. Ripe adults were
held overnight at 20\\u00b0C in well aerated tanks at low densities with no
food and strip spawned the next day.
 
For each experiment, eggs from 20+ running-ripe females were gently mixed into
shallow plastic dishes lined with 1 mm plastic window screening. 20+ males
were stripped-spawned together into 500 ml glass beakers, mixed with seawater,
stirred, then gently poured into spawning dishes and mixed with eggs for ~15
minutes. Screens were rinsed with seawater to remove unfertilized eggs and
then soaked in a 100 ppm buffered iodine (Ovadine\\u00ae) solution for 15
minutes to prevent fungal infection. Experiments were initiated within two
hours of fertilization when replicate rearing vessels received precisely 100
embryos. Vessels were filled with clean seawater (filtered to 1 \\u00b5m and UV
sterilized). Optimal salinity (27-31) and light conditions (15 h light:9 h
dark) for rearing M. menidia were maintained across experiments. Upon hatching
larvae were immediately provided ad libitum rations of newly hatched brine
shrimp nauplii (Artemia salina, San Francisco strain, brineshrimpdirect.com)
and equal rations of powdered weaning diet (Otohime Marine Fish Diet, size A1,
Reed Mariculture\\u00ae). To quantify hatching survival, one day post first
hatch larvae were counted by gently scooping small groups into replacement
rearing vessels. For initial hatch measurements, random sub-samples (N = 10)
from each replicate were preserved in 5% formaldehyde/freshwater solution
buffered with saturated sodium tetraborate. All experiments were terminated
when larvae reached ~10 mm standard length (SL). At termination, all survivors
were counted and measured for standard length (SL, nearest 0.01 mm) via
calibrated digital images (Image Pro Premier\\u00ae V9.0).";

"Description from NSF award abstract:
Coastal marine ecosystems provide a number of important services and resources for humans, and at the same time, coastal waters are subject to environmental stressors such as increases in ocean acidification and reductions in dissolved oxygen. The effects of these stressors on coastal marine organisms remain poorly understood because most research to date has examined the sensitivity of species to one factor, but not to more than one in combination. This project will determine how a model fish species, the Atlantic silverside, will respond to observed and predicted levels of dissolved carbon dioxide (CO2) and oxygen (O2). Shorter-term experiments will measure embryo and larval survival, growth, and metabolism, and determine whether parents experiencing stressful conditions produce more robust offspring. Longer-term experiments will study the consequences of ocean acidification over the entire life span by quantifying the effects of high-CO2 conditions on the ratio of males to females, lifetime growth, and reproductive investment. These studies will provide a more comprehensive view of how multiple stressors may impact populations of Atlantic silversides and potentially other important forage fish species. This collaborative project will support and train three graduate students at the University of Connecticut and the Stony Brook University (NY), two institutions that attract students from minority groups. It will also provide a variety of opportunities for undergraduates to participate in research and the public to learn about the study, through summer research projects, incorporation in the \"Women in Science and Engineering\" program, and interactive displays of environmental data from monitoring buoys. The two early-career investigators are committed to increasing ocean literacy and awareness of NSF-funded research through public talks and presentations.
This project responds to the recognized need for multi-stressor assessments of species sensitivities to anthropogenic environmental change. It will combine environmental monitoring with advanced experimental approaches to characterize early and whole life consequences of acidification and hypoxia in the Atlantic silverside (Menidia menidia), a valued model species and important forage fish along most of the US east coast. Experiments will employ a newly constructed, computer-controlled fish rearing system to allow independent and combined manipulation of seawater pCO2 and dissolved oxygen (DO) content and the application of static and fluctuating pCO2 and DO levels that were chosen to represent contemporary and potential future scenarios in productive coastal habitats. First CO2, DO, and CO2 × DO dependent reaction norms will be quantified for fitness-relevant early life history (ELH) traits including pre- and post-hatch survival, time to hatch, post-hatch growth, by rearing offspring collected from wild adults from fertilization to 20 days post hatch (dph) using a full factorial design of 3 CO2 × 3 DO levels. Second, the effects of tidal and diel CO2 × DO fluctuations of different amplitudes on silverside ELH traits will be quantified. To address knowledge gaps regarding the CO2-sensitivity in this species, laboratory manipulations of adult spawner environments and reciprocal offspring exposure experiments will elucidate the role of transgenerational plasticity as a potential short-term mechanism to cope with changing environments. To better understand the mechanisms of fish early life CO2-sensitivity, the effects of temperature × CO2 on pre- and post-hatch metabolism will be robustly quantified. The final objective is to rear silversides from fertilization to maturity under different CO2 levels and assess potential CO2-effects on sex ratio and whole life growth and fecundity.

For experiment 1, adults were collected from Poquot Beach (40.947376, -73.10258), and the experiment took place at Stony Brook University\\u2019s Flax Pond Marine Laboratory. For experiments 2\\u20135, spawning adults were collected from Mumford Cove (41.321526, -72.015247), and experiments were conducted in the Rankin Seawater Facility at University of Connecticut\\u2019s Avery Point campus. The experiments quantified two survival and two growth traits for each replicate and CO2 \\u00d7 temperature treatment; embryo survival (fertilization to 1 dph), larval survival (1 dph to experiment termination), size (SL) at hatch (1 dph), and growth rate ((SL at end of experiment \\u2013 SL 1dph)/number days reared post hatch).

Using tabledap to Request Data and Graphs from Tabular Datasets

tabledap lets you request a data subset, a graph, or a map from a tabular dataset (for example, buoy data), via a specially formed URL. tabledap uses the OPeNDAP (external link) Data Access Protocol (DAP) (external link) and its selection constraints (external link).

The URL specifies what you want: the dataset, a description of the graph or the subset of the data, and the file type for the response.

Tabledap request URLs must be in the form
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/datasetID.fileType{?query}
For example,
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/pmelTaoDySst.htmlTable?longitude,latitude,time,station,wmo_platform_code,T_25&time>=2015-05-23T12:00:00Z&time<=2015-05-31T12:00:00Z
Thus, the query is often a comma-separated list of desired variable names, followed by a collection of constraints (e.g., variable<value), each preceded by '&' (which is interpreted as "AND").

For details, see the tabledap Documentation.
