[Invertebrate Survival] - Invertebrate survival: Invertebrate survival rates from feeding experiments, conducted at Bodega Marine Laboratory, where food sources (eelgrass (Zostera marina) genotypes) were varied (Connecting genetic diversity to ecosystem functioning: links between genetic diversity, relatedness and trait variation in a seagrass community)

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 the roles of plant genetic diversity and grazer species diversity on detrital consumption in California eelgrass Zostera marina meadows. We used three common mesograzers\u2014an amphipod, Ampithoe lacertosa, an isopod, Idotea resecata, and a polychaete, Platynereis bicanaliculata. In this experiment, we raised communities of either Ampithoe lacertosa or communities of all three mesograzers on either no food, eelgrass detritus from a single clone, or eelgrass detritus from 3 of from 6 different clones. Under monospecific grazer assemblages, plant genetic identity but not diversity influenced detritus consumption. However, more realistic, diverse mesoconsumer communities combined with high plant-detrital genotypic diversity resulted in greater consumption and grazer survival. These data are illustrated in figure 6 of Reynolds et al., 2017 (DOI:10.1111/oik.04471).

Laboratory studies were conducted to examine the sorption of selected radionuclides (234Th, 233Pa, 210Po, 210Pb, and 7Be) onto inorganic (pure silica and acid-cleaned diatom frustules) and organic (diatom cells with or without silica frustules) particles in natural seawater and the role of templating biomolecules and exopolymeric substances (EPS) extracted from the same species of diatom, Phaeodactylum tricornutum, in the sorption process. The range of partition coefficients (Kd, reported as logKd) of radionuclides between water and the different particle types was 4.78\u20136.69 for 234Th, 5.23\u20136.71 for 233Pa, 4.44\u20135.86 for 210Pb, 4.47\u20134.92 for 210Po, and 4.93\u20137.23 for 7Be, similar to values reported for lab and field determinations. The sorption of all radionuclides was significantly enhanced in the presence of organic matter associated with particles, resulting in Kd one to two orders of magnitude higher than for inorganic particles only, with highest values for 7Be (logKd of 7.2). Results further indicate that EPS and frustule-embedded biomolecules in diatom cells are responsible for the sorption enhancement rather than the silica shell itself. By separating radiolabeled EPS via isoelectric focusing, we found that isoelectric points are radionuclide specific, suggesting that each radionuclide binds to specific biopolymeric functional groups, with the most efficient binding sites likely occurring in acid polysaccharides, iron hydroxides, and proteins. Further progress in evaluating the effects of diatom frustule\u2013related biopolymers on binding, scavenging, and fractionation of radionuclides would require the application of molecular-level characterization\r\ntechniques.

[JeDI] - Jellyfish Database Initiative: Global records on gelatinous zooplankton for the past 200 years, collected from global sources and literature (Trophic BATS project) (Plankton Community Composition and Trophic Interactions as Modifiers of Carbon Export in the Sargasso Sea 	)

The Jellyfish Database Initiative (JeDI) is a scientifically-coordinated global database dedicated to gelatinous zooplankton (members of the Cnidaria, Ctenophora and Thaliacea) and associated environmental data. The database holds 476,000 quantitative, categorical, presence-absence and presence only records of gelatinous zooplankton spanning the past four centuries (1790-2011) assembled from a variety of published and unpublished sources. Gelatinous zooplankton data are reported to species level, where identified, but taxonomic information on phylum, family and order are reported for all records. Other auxiliary metadata, such as physical, environmental and biometric information relating to the gelatinous zooplankton metadata, are included with each respective entry. JeDI has been developed and designed as an open access research tool for the scientific community to quantitatively define the global baseline of gelatinous zooplankton populations and to describe long-term and large-scale trends in gelatinous zooplankton populations and blooms. It has also been constructed as a future repository of datasets, thus allowing retrospective analyses of the baseline and trends in global gelatinous zooplankton populations to be conducted in the future.

[Juvenile Black sea bass winter growth and lipid accumulation under varying food and temperature conditions - Experiment 1] - Winter growth and lipid accumulation in juvenile Black sea bass exposed to varying food and temperature conditions during lab experiments conducted from September 2021 to April 2022 at UConn Avery Point (Collaborative research: Understanding the effects of acidification and hypoxia within and across generations in a coastal marine fish)

The northern stock of Black sea bass (BSB, Centropristis striata) has greatly expanded over the past decade, potentially due to warming Northwest Atlantic shelf waters affecting overwintering especially in juveniles. To gather better empirical data we quantified winter growth and lipid accumulation in BSB juveniles from Long Island Sound using two complementing experiments. The data from Experiment 1 are presented here.

Experiment 1 measured individual length growth (GR), weight-specific growth (SGR), growth efficiency, and lipid content at constant food and three static temperatures: 6°, 12°, and 19° Celsius (C). Average GR (SGR) decreased from 0.24 millimeters per day (mm d-1) at 19°C (0.89% d-1) to 0.15 mm d-1 at 12°C (0.54% d-1) to 0.04 mm d-1 at 6°C (0.17% d-1). Even at the coldest temperature, most juveniles sustained positive GRs and SGRs; hence, the species' true thermal growth minimum may be below 6°C. However, lipid accumulation was greatest at 12°C, which is close to what overwintering juveniles likely encounter offshore.

The data from Experiment 2 are presented in a related dataset (https://www.bco-dmo.org/dataset/898012). In both experiments, juveniles disproportionally accumulated lipid over lean mass, with lipid proportions tripling in Exp2 from 4% at 65 mm to 12% at 120 mm.

[Kāneʻohe Bay Time-series - microbial community] - Flow cytometry, 16S rRNA gene amplicons, chlorophyll a, and surface seawater measurements  taken between August 2017 to June 2019 Kāneʻohe Bay, Oʻahu, Hawaiʻi (Population genomics and ecotypic divergence in the most dominant lineage of marine bacteria)

These data include temperature, pH, salinity, chlorophyll a concentrations, cellular abundances of Prochlorococcus, Synechococcus, photosynthetic picoeukaryotes, and heterotrophic bacteria, and 16S ribosomal RNA gene amplicon libraries from 200 surface seawater samples collected as part of the Kāneʻohe Bay Time-series (KByT). Near-monthly sampling of surface seawater was conducted between August 2017 to June 2019 at 10 sites within coastal waters of Kāneʻohe Bay, Oʻahu, Hawaiʻi and in the adjacent offshore. Instruments used were a YSI 6,600 sonde, a Turner 10AU fluorometer, an EPICS ALTRA flow cytometer, and an Illumina MiSeq v2 platform.

These data characterize the partitioning of microbial communities across sharp physiochemical gradients in surface seawaters connecting nearshore and offshore waters in the tropical Pacific. This study provides evidence for the ecological differentiation of SAR11 marine bacteria across nearshore to offshore waters in the tropical Pacific and further increases our understanding of how SAR11 genetic diversity partitions into distinct ecological units. Data were collected by Sarah J. Tucker, Kelle C. Freel, Elizabeth A. Monaghan, Clarisse E. S. Sullivan, Oscar Ramfelt, Yoshimi M. Rii, and Michael S. Rappé.

[Kāneʻohe Bay Time-series - phytoplankton and biogeochemistry] - Biological oceanographic measurements, 16S rRNA gene amplicons and metagenomes from surface seawater taken from August 2017 to June 2021 at sites within and adjacent to Kāneʻohe Bay, Oʻahu, Hawaiʻi (Population genomics and ecotypic divergence in the most dominant lineage of marine bacteria)

These data include temperature, pH, salinity, chlorophyll a concentrations, cellular abundances of Prochlorococcus, Synechococcus, photosynthetic picoeukaryotes, and heterotrophic bacteria,16S ribosomal RNA gene amplicon libraries, metagenomes, inorganic nutrient concentrations, and photosynthetic pigment measurements via high performance liquid chromatography from surface seawater samples collected as part of the Kāneʻohe Bay Time-series (KByT). This dataset reflects near-monthly sampling of surface seawater that was conducted between between August 2017 and June 2021 at 10-12 sites within and adjacent to Kāneʻohe Bay, Oʻahu, Hawaiʻi. Instruments used were a YSI 6,600 sonde, a ProDSS multi-parameter sonde, a Turner 10AU fluorometer, a Beckman Coulter CytoFLEX S flow cytometer, a Seal Analytical AA3 HR Nutrient Autoanalyzer, an Illumina MiSeq v2 platform, and the Illumina NovaSeq 6000.

These data reveal a remarkably persistent transition in surface ocean biogeochemistry, phytoplankton biomass, and phytoplankton community structure, despite high water exchange and define surface ocean biogeochemical and phytoplankton regimes over space and time across nearshore to offshore waters in the tropical Pacific. These results provide insight into drivers of seasonal and spatial variability of phytoplankton communities. Data were collected and analyzed by Sarah J. Tucker, Yoshimi M. Rii, Kelle C.

[larval krill pigments] - Larval krill studies - fluorescence and clearance from ARSV Laurence M. Gould LMG0106, LMG0205 in the Southern Ocean from 2001-2002 (SOGLOBEC project) (U.S. GLOBEC Southern Ocean)

The goal of the larval krill studies was to investigate the physiology and ecology of krill larvae associated with the pack ice and the microbial community on which they feed.\r\n\r\nDuring LMG0106 we occupied two 4-5 day ice stations (Robert and Billy) and sampled several other ice floes opportunistically. We conducted 10 instantaneous growth rate experiments, and 4 whole body clearance time experiments to determine gut passage time (decline in pigment content over time). We also sampled larvae at two additional sites for initial body pigment content (whole body fluorescence), and at 4 sites for condition factor. The under-ice algal community was sampled at one site. Length and stage frequency determinations were also determined.\r\n\r\nWe occupied three time-series stations of approximately 1 week each, and in addition opportunistically sampled at times when other activities had priority. Our primary goal during the cruise was to occupy three ice camps or process stations with the intent of thoroughly studying the under-ice environment by SCUBA in conjunction with other projects working topside.

[Live area and NDVI measurements] - Total live mangrove coverage and annual NDVI classifications for the mangrove die-off region based on Landsat 5 and 7 transformed imagery. (An interdisciplinary approach to elucidating the causes of widespread mangrove die-off)

These data were compiled to better determine when the mangrove die-off began.
NDVI values of 0.2 or greater correspond to live mangrove cover. These data
suggest the mangrove die-off may have started in 2008 and was exacerbated in
following years with some recovery in 2013. Live area was calculated by
determining the area of the die-off region with NDVI values greater than 0.2.

[Log_Kd] - Partition coefficient of 234Th, 233Pa, 210Pb, 210Po, and 7Be (Biopolymers as carrier phases for selected natural radionuclides (of Th, Pa, Pb, Po, Be) in diatoms and coccolithophores)

Laboratory studies were conducted to examine the sorption of selected radionuclides (234Th, 233Pa, 210Po, 210Pb, and 7Be) onto inorganic (pure silica and acid-cleaned diatom frustules) and organic (diatom cells with or without silica frustules) particles in natural seawater and the role of templating biomolecules and exopolymeric substances (EPS) extracted from the same species of diatom, Phaeodactylum tricornutum, in the sorption process. The range of partition coefficients (Kd, reported as logKd) of radionuclides between water and the different particle types was 4.78\u20136.69 for 234Th, 5.23\u20136.71 for 233Pa, 4.44\u20135.86 for 210Pb, 4.47\u20134.92 for 210Po, and 4.93\u20137.23 for 7Be, similar to values reported for lab and field determinations. The sorption of all radionuclides was significantly enhanced in the presence of organic matter associated with particles, resulting in Kd one to two orders of magnitude higher than for inorganic particles only, with highest values for 7Be (logKd of 7.2). Results further indicate that EPS and frustule-embedded biomolecules in diatom cells are responsible for the sorption enhancement rather than the silica shell itself. By separating radiolabeled EPS via isoelectric focusing, we found that isoelectric points are radionuclide specific, suggesting that each radionuclide binds to specific biopolymeric functional groups, with the most efficient binding sites likely occurring in acid polysaccharides, iron hydroxides, and proteins. Further progress in evaluating the effects of diatom frustule\u2013related biopolymers on binding, scavenging, and fractionation of radionuclides would require the application of molecular-level characterization techniques.

[Macroalgal biodiversity experiment: coral growth and tissue mortality data] - Coral (Pocillopora verrucosa) growth and tissue mortality from experimental field plots in Moʻorea, French Polynesia in 2021 (Positive Effects of Coral Biodiversity on Coral Performance: Patterns, Processes, and Dynamics)

Hundreds of studies now document positive relationships between biodiversity and critical ecosystem processes, but as ecological communities worldwide shift towards new species configurations, less is known regarding how biodiversity of undesirable species will shape the functioning of ecosystems or foundation species. We manipulated macroalgal species richness in experimental field plots to test whether and how identity and diversity of competing macroalgae affected the growth, survival, and microbiome of a common coral in Moʻorea, French Polynesia. These data include coral (Pocillopora verrucosa) percent growth and tissue mortality among corals outplanted into 25 cm x 21 cm experimental plots in the back reef lagoon on the north coast of Moʻorea, French Polynesia (17°28′37″S 149°50′21″W). We varied the macroalgal community on the upper surface of each plot by outplanting monocultures holding similar masses of: (1) Sargassum pacificum, (2) Turbinaria ornata, or (3) Amansia rhodantha, as well as (4) polycultures containing all three species (12 plots per treatment; Figure 1 of Clements et al., 2024). There were also two additional treatments: (5) plots with plastic algal mimics to control for effects of shading or abrasion unrelated to the biotic properties of live seaweeds and 6) control plots where corals, but not living algae or physical mimics, were present (n = 12 plots/treatment).

This dataset includes coral (Pocillopora verrucosa) growth and tissue mortality at 9 weeks for plots with no algae (control), plastic algal mimics, monocultures of Amansia rhodantha, Turbinaria ornata, or Sargassum pacificum, and polycultures containing all three algal species.
