Summary:
Coral reefs surrounding Palau, Micronesia are living within a broad range of thermal habitats. Specifically, corals living on the offshore barrier reefs surrounding Palau reside in waters with low temperature variability compared to the much warmer and more acidic waters of near shore environments surrounding the Rock Island habitats.

This study was designed to test the differences in thermal physiology among two species of reef corals that reside at both of these locations. Specifically, we examined how short-term elevated temperature influences  the photochemistry of each coral species from each location before and after heating, as measured by active chlorophyll fluorescence recorded by pulse amplitude modulation (PAM) fluorometry.

[Palmer Station Nitrate Uptake] - Phytoplankton nitrate uptake rates collected during the 2012-2013 Palmer Field Season (WAP Carbon export project) (Quantifying Processes Driving Interannual Variability in the Biological Carbon Pump in the Western Antarctic Peninsula)

Summary:
Uptake of nitrate by phytoplankton during the 2012-2013 field season of the Palmer LTER program near Anvers Island in the Western Antarctic Peninsula.  Nitrate uptake is a proxy for production based on “new” nitrogen entering the ecosystem and hence should balance export flux when integrated over sufficiently large spatial scales and long temporal scales.  Nitrate uptake was measured through the uptake of isotopically labeled nitrate, typically at 5 depts spanning the surface to 65 m depth.  Measurements were typically made twice per week through the ice-free summer phytoplankton growing season.

[Parasite abundance in coral reef fishes] - Parasite abundance data collected from coral reef fishes across 19 islands in the central equatorial Pacific from 2009 to 2021 (Collaborative Research: Decomposing the effects of diversity on the abundance of marine parasites)

Summary:
The loss of biological diversity is considered one of the principal environmental challenges of the 21st century, and there are hints that this massive reorganization of food webs could affect how parasites are transmitted among hosts. Parasites are often hidden and can be easy to overlook, but they are ecologically important and ubiquitous - so it is important to understand whether we should expect more or fewer of them as biodiversity disappears. Does biodiversity loss increase the abundance of parasites by eroding natural "checks and balances" on transmission? Or does it decrease parasite abundance by removing the free-living biodiversity on which parasites depend? Answers to these questions are urgently needed if we are to mitigate or prevent an uptick in parasite transmission for ecosystems experiencing biodiversity loss.

In a joint collaborative research project among the University of Washington, Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego, and California State University Monterey Bay, we created a parasite dataset of unprecedented size and taxonomic resolution. We sampled parasites of coral reef fishes from 19 replicate islands in the central equatorial Pacific to study how biodiversity and parasite burden covary.

In this dataset, we present all of the data we collected on parasite abundance in coral reef fishes. We sampled 17 species (Acanthurus nigricans, Cephalopholis argus, Cephalopholis urodeta, Chromis iomelas, Chromis margaritifer, Ctenochaetus marginatus, Ctenochaetus striatus, Paracirrhites arcatus, Plectroglyphidodon dickii, Pseudanthias bartlettorum, Pseudanthias dispar, Pseudanthias mooreanus, Pseudanthias olivaceus, Pseudanthias pascalus, Pseudanthias spp., Stegastes aureus, Stegastes fasciolatus) across three archipelagos and 19 islands (Jarvis, Kingman, Kiritimati, Palmyra, Tabuaeran, and Teraina in the Northern Line Islands; Flint, Malden, Millennium, Starbuck, and Vostok in the Southern Line Islands; Huahine, Moorea, Raiatea, Rangiroa, Tahiti, Takapoto, Tetiaroa, and Tikehau in French Polynesia), for a total of 5,251 fish. These 17 broadly distributed host species represent a large spectrum of body sizes, including multiple taxonomic and trophic groups. Included in the dataset are specimens collected from expeditions mounted in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2013, 2019, 2020, and 2021.

Fish were collected with three-pronged spears and hand-nets, individually labeled and bagged, and frozen for transport before being thawed and evaluated for parasites. Parasitological dissections were designed to detect all multi-cellular (i.e., metazoan) parasites other than myxozoans, but would not have detected viral, bacterial, protozoal, or fungal parasites. Parasites were identified to the lowest possible taxonomic level and grouped into their broad parasite taxonomic grouping (i.e., Acanthocephalan, Cestoda, Copepoda, Isopoda, Monogenea, Other Crustacea, Trematoda, Nematoda) and transmission strategy (i.e., complex life cycle versus direct transmission).

[Parasite flow cytometry data] - Cell concentrations, percent of host infected, and bulk dissolved organic carbon (DOC) from laboratory experiments examining parasite-host metabolites in 2023 (Characterizing plankton parasite-host metabolites and the response of heterotrophic bacteria)

Summary:
Laboratory experiments were carried out to characterize plankton infection dynamics and extracellular metabolites over an infection cycle in two parasite-host pairings. Data reported here are cell concentrations, percent of host infected, and bulk DOC concentrations measured daily over an infection cycle (four days) that coincides with collection of extracellular metabolites for analysis via liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Separate experiments were performed for two strains of the parasite Amoebophyra sp. (4390 and 4401) that infected the same host dinoflagellate species, Scrippsiella acuminata. Metabolomics data collected from these experiments will be available on MetaboLights (MTBLS11219).

Summary:
Optical proxy measurements of sinking particle flux and water-column bio-optical profiles were obtained from profiling floats in the Sargasso Sea to expand the number of particle flux observations in the critical and under-sampled \u201ctwilight zone\u201d. Particulate organic carbon flux derived from float-based optical sediment trap measurements was validated against fluxes measured directly with co-deployed, drifting neutrally-buoyant, sediment traps during a series of five short cruises before floats were deployed for approximately one year. The data returned by the floats comprise quantitative particle flux observations made at high-enough temporal resolution to interpret in the context of short-term, upper-ocean production events.

[Particle Amino Acid d15N Station ALOHA 2014] - Nitrogen isotopic ratios of individual amino acids extracted from size-fractionated particulate organic matter aboard the R/V Kilo Moana in February (cruise KM1407) and September (cruise KM1418) 2014 at Station ALOHA (Evaluating the relative importance of suspended and sinking particles to the meso and bathypelagic food web in the central North Pacific)

Summary:
The data include nitrogen isotopic ratios of individual amino acids extracted from size-fractionated particulate organic matter collected between the surface and 1200 m in the water column at Station ALOHA. Particle samples were collected via sequential size fractionation using McLane in-situ pumps on two cruises conducted aboard the R/V Kilo Moana in February (KM1407) and September (KM1418) 2014. Data were collected as part of a project focused on characterizing sources of nutrition for the mesopelagic animal food web, for which particulate organic matter was a crucial baseline resource. In addition, differences in the nitrogen isotopic ratios of individual amino acids from particle size fractions and over depth provide insight into phytoplankton origins and microbial or zooplankton alteration of particulate matter involved in carbon export. Compound-specific isotopic data and amino acid quantities were collected using gas chromatography-isotope ratio mass spectrometry, and bulk isotopic data and quantities were collected using elemental analysis-isotope ratio mass spectrometry, both at University of Hawaii. Dr. Hilary Close (former affiliation: University of Hawaii, current affiliation: University of Miami) was the primary investigator involved in sampling and analysis of data presented here.

[Particle counts, Zooglider BioSWOT-Med] - Particle counts for BioSWOT-Med Zooglider deployment in the Northwestern Mediterranean Sea, March-May 2023 (Zooglider assessment of zooplankton frontal gradients across the BIOSWOT-Med region)

Summary:
These data are based on deployment of the Scripps Zooglider in collaboration with the French-led BIOSWOT-Med study in the Northwestern Mediterranean Sea in Spring 2023.  This study was one of the Adopt-a-Crossover field studies carried out around the world in synchrony with the launch by NASA/CNES of the new SWOT satellite for enhanced ocean altimetry.  We deployed Zooglider on 30 March 2023 from Palma, Majora using a small craft, then navigated it remotely to the BIOSWOT-Med study region.  Initially Zooglider sampled to the east of Majorca and south of Menorca. Then we recovered Zooglider at sea, transported it to the center of an anticyclonic eddy north of Menorca, and redeployed it, navigating it from the eddy center across the eddy periphery.  We then recovered it at sea on 8 May 2023, for a total mission duration of 40 days.  Zooglider data were telemetered back to our server each time the vehicle surfaced and the data were immediately posted on our public website, available to all BIOSWOT-Med participants and any member of the general public.  The data archived here are the data recovered from the Zooglider at the end of the mission.  They include enumerations of 25 categories of planktonic organisms, plus enumerations of particles between 0.25-0.45 mm Equivalent Circular Diameter.  Data were typically acquired in Zooglider dives between approximately 420 m depth and the sea surface, apart from initial and final Zooglider dives that were somewhat shallower.

Summary:
Particle flux measurements from the Hawaii Ocean Time-Series (HOT). Particle flux was measured at a standard reference depth of 150 meters using multiple cylindrical particle interceptor traps deployed on a free-floating array for approximately 60 hours during each cruise. Sediment trap design and collection methods are described in Winn et al. (1991). Samples were analyzed for particulate carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, and silica. Typically six traps are analyzed for particulate carbon and particulate nitrogen, three for particulate phosphorus, and another three traps for particulate silica.

[Particulate bulk and amino acid d15N - EXPORTS May 2021] - Particulate bulk and amino acid d15N values from EXPORTS cruises on RRS Discovery (DY131) and RRS James Cook (JC214) in May 2021 (Collaborative Research: Isotopic Indicators for Mechanisms of Organic Matter Degradation under High Productivity and High Carbon Flux Conditions (EXPORTS))

Summary:
This dataset presents bulk and compound-specific nitrogen stable isotope ratios of amino acids in size-fractionated and sinking particles from the Northeast Atlantic during the spring bloom decline as part of the second EXPORTS campaign. Size-fractionated particles were collected via in situ filtration and sinking particles were collected via sediment traps in May 2021. Size-fractionated particles were collected from 20 meters (m) to 500 m at various depths, depending on particle type. At 30 and 340 m, five size fractions were collected for both bulk and amino acids isotopic analysis: 0.3-1 micrometers (μm), 1-6 μm, 6-51 μm, 51-335 μm, and >335 μm. At 20, 50, 75 or 95, 125 or 145, 175 or 195, 330, and 500 m, two size fractions were collected for amino acid isotopic analysis: 0.8-51 μm particles and >51 μm particles. Particle data were used to determine major processes altering particulate organic matter. The collection of these data was supported by NSF.

[Particulate Carbon Concentrations and Stable Carbon Isotopes] - Particulate Carbon Concentrations and Stable Carbon Isotopes in Marine Particles Captured by In Situ Mclane Pumps at Cocos Ridge Coco Ridge (Eastern Equatorial Pacific) during cruise SR2113 between November - December 2021 (Collaborative Research: New approaches to study calcium carbonate dissolution on the sea floor and its impact on paleo-proxy interpretations)

Summary:
This dataset includes particulate carbon concentrations and isotopes collected in December, 2021. Suspended particles are collected at 4 different stations near Cocos Ridge, at two different size fractions using Mclane pumps.  The two size fractions are large size fraction (LSF) that is >51 um, and small size fraction (SSF) that is 0.5 -- 51 um. Concentrations and stable carbon isotopes of particulate inorganic carbon (PIC) and total carbon (TC) are measured and reported. PIC content are measured by acidifying a subsample of the Glass Fiber Filter (GFF) and measuring total CO2 released using a Picarro Cavity Ring-down Spectroscopy. TC content are analyzed by burning a subsample of the GFF on Elemental Analyzer (EA). Samples were collected during SR2113 onboard Sally Ride, under the project "new approaches to study calcium carbonate dissolution on the sea floor and its impact on paleo-proxy interpretations", as a water-column side determination of particle compositions and carbonate dissolution. This data reveals changes in concentrations and stable carbon isotopes with water depth, and has implications for multiple biogeochemical processes associated with both the inorganic and the organic carbon within marine particles in the water column.

[Particulate metals from the scandium incubation experiment on PUPCYCLE I in the California Current System in 2019] - Particulate metals from a scandium incubation experiment during the PUPCYCLE I R/V Oceanus cruise 1905B in the California Current System in 2019 (CAREER: An integrated molecular and physiological approach to examining the dynamics of upwelled phytoplankton in current and changing oceans)

Summary:
We performed an incubation experiment with added dissolved scandium and/or iron in waters sampled in the California Current System during the PUPCYCLE I cruise in 2019 with Chief Scientist Adrian Marchetti. PUPCYCLE I (Phytoplankton response to the UPwelling CYCLE) took place in summer 2019 onboard the R/V Oceanus (OC 1905b). Water for the incubation was collected from 15 m just off the Big Sur coast 2 June 2019. This was in a region with an extremely narrow shelf. There were five total treatments run in triplicate: control (no addition), +5 nmol/kg dissolved Fe, +5 nmol/kg dissolved Sc, +5 nmol/kg dissolved Fe and +5 nmol/kg dissolved Sc, and filtered seawater with +5 nmol/kg dissolved Fe and +5 nmol/kg dissolved Sc. After 24 hours incubating, the incubation was harvested and analyzed for chlorophyll, nutrients, and dissolved and particulate Fe and Sc concentrations. The effort was to investigate similarities and differences in the oceanic chemical cycling of Fe and Sc.

[Particulate Organic Matter from BVal58 Cruise] - Concentrations of particulate organic matter (POC, PON, POP, PCOD), total oxygen demand, POM ratios, and respiration ratios from samples collected on R/V Atlantic Explorer BATS validation study #58 in the Sargasso Sea in October 2021 (Quantifying ocean oxygen-to-carbon demand by chemical analyses and inverse models)

Summary:
This dataset includes suspended concentrations of particulate organic carbon (POC), particulate organic nitrogen (PON), particulate organic phosphorus (POP), particulate chemical oxygen demand (PCOD), and total oxygen demand (Sigma_-O2 = PCOD + 2PON) down to a depth of 1000 meters (m) in the Sargasso Sea. This dataset also includes POM ratios (C/N, C/P, & N/P) and respiration ratios (PCOD/POC, Sigma_-O2/C, Sigma_-O2/N, & Sigma_-O2/P) with depth. These measurements were quantified from seawater samples collected aboard the R/V Atlantic Explorer as part of the Bermuda Atlantic Time-series Study Validation cruise #58 (BVal58). BVal58 started at St. George's, Bermuda on 11 October 2021 and the research group disembarked in San Juan, Puerto Rico on 21 October 2021. Euphotic zone samples (5 - 120 m) were collected using a CTD bottle rosette and disphotic zone samples (150 - 1000 m) were collected using large volume pumps.

Climate-induced ocean deoxygenation is increasing, but biological components of oxygen loss remain unconstrained. We determined from this dataset that the total respiration quotient, Sigma_-O2/C, and other respiration ratios of POM vary with depth.

[Partition_coefficients_for_COC] - Partition coefficients of the radionuclide into colloidal organic matter from seawater of the west Pacific Ocean and the northern Gulf of Mexico (Biopolymers as carrier phases for selected natural radionuclides (of Th, Pa, Pb, Po, Be) in diatoms and coccolithophores)

Summary:
To study the binding mechanisms of radionuclides to organic moieties in colloidal organic matter (COM),marine colloids (1 kDa\u20130.2 \u03bcm) were isolated by cross-flow ultrafiltration from seawater of the west Pacific Ocean and the northern Gulf of Mexico. For the same purpose, exopolymeric substances (EPS) produced by laboratory cultured diatoms were collected as well. In our study areas, colloidal organic carbon (COC) concentrations ranged from 6.5 to 202 \u03bcg-C/L in the Pacific Ocean, and were 808 \u03bcg-C/L in the Gulf of Mexico. The COM compositions (organic carbon, organic nitrogen, proteins, total hydrolysable amino acids, total polysaccharides, uronic acids, hydroxamate siderophores, hydroquinone) were quantified to examine the relationships between partition coefficients (Kc) of five different radionuclides, 234Th, 233Pa, 210Pb, 210Po and 7Be, and concentration ratios to COC of individual chelating biomolecules that could potentially act as a chelating moiety. The range of partition coefficients (Kc, reported as logKc) of radionuclides between water and the different colloidal materials was 5.12 to 5.85 for 234Th, 5.19 to 6.01 for 233Pa, 4.21 to 4.85 for 210Pb, 4.87 to 5.68 for 210Po, and 4.49 to 4.92 for 7Be, similar to values previously reported for lab and field determinations under different particle concentrations. While any relationship obtained between Kc and abundance of specific moieties could not be taken as proving the existence of colloidal organic binding ligands for the different radionuclides, it could suggest possible organic moieties involved in the scavenging of these natural radionuclides. Together with results from isoelectric focusing of radiolabeled COM, we conclude that binding to different biomolecules is nuclide-specific, with colloidal hydroxamate siderophoric moieties being important for the binding of Th and Pa radionuclides. Hydroquinones/ quinone (HQ/Q) facilitated redox and chelation reactions seem to be involved in the binding of Pa and Be. However, the actual mechanisms are not clear. Individual amino acids, proteins, total polysaccharides and uronic acids did not yield significant relationships with logKc values of the different radionuclides. Nonetheless, our results provide new insights into the relative importance of different potential ligand moieties in COM in the binding and possible scavenging of specific radionuclides in the ocean.

[PcaFV Prevalence] - Prevalence of PcaFV in Apostichopus californicus specimens collected in Southeast Alaska from Jun to Nov 2021 (Exploring the role of boundary layer microbial remineralization in flavivirus-host dynamics)

Summary:
Understanding the prevalence and load of aquatic invertebrate flaviviruses is essential to estimating risk to fisheries. We surveyed the prevalence of the Apostichopus californicus (urn:lsid:marinespecies.org:taxname:529363) associated flavivirus (PcaFV) using two approaches: Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) and quantitative reverse transcriptase PCR. We targeted this survey around two populations of A. californicus: specimens collected from Sitka Sound, Sitka, Alaska (Baranhof Island) and at undisclosed locations in the Ketchikan sea cucumber commercial fishery. We found that LAMP detected PcaFV in 21 % of tested specimens, and qRT-PCR in 88% of tested specimens. The mean load of PcaFV in copies per ng RNA extracted was significantly higher in specimens that were positive by LAMP compared to those in which LAMP did not detect PcaFV. This dataset contains PcaFV prevalence determined by RT-LAMP and qRT-PCR, as well as associated collection metadata.

[Peptidase and glucosidase activities from mesocosm and bulk water incubations.] - Peptidase and glucosidase activities from mesocosm and bulk water incubations from waters taken aboard the R/V Endeavor in the Western North Atlantic during the research cruise EN683 in May and June, 2022. (Substrate structural complexity and abundance control distinct mechanisms of microbially-driven carbon cycling in the ocean)

Summary:
This dataset includes the measurements of leucine aminopeptidase, glucosidase, and endo-acting (mid-chain cleaving) peptidase activities from bulk and mesocosm incubations from waters taken aboard the R/V Endeavor in the Western North Atlantic during the research cruise EN683 (2022-05-24 to 2022-06-12). Waters for bulk incubation were taken at three sites and various depths, mesocosm incubations were taken at two sites and two depths.

This research tested the hypothesis that the mechanism of polysaccharide processing is related to the cost to a cell of producing the enzymes required for its hydrolysis, and the probability that a cell will receive sufficient return on investment for producing the enzymes. Our conceptual model suggests that external (extracellular) hydrolysis is favored when organic matter is abundant, or when enzyme production costs can be shared (e.g., on particles, in biofilms); selfish uptake (hydrolysis without production of low molecular weight products in the environment) would be a better strategy when high molecular weight (HMW) organic matter is scarce, and particularly when the HMW organic matter is very complex.

Seawater was sampled from four depths at our initial station, and the deep chlorophyll maximum and bottom water from two subsequent stations differing in typical extent of primary productivity.

We incubated mesocosms of seawater from the deep chlorophyll maximum and from bottom water from two stations differing in typical extent of primary productivity. We changed organic matter availability by adding to three mesocosms high molecular weight organic matter (dissolved and particulate) from diatoms, three mesocosms received an addition of the polysaccharide fucoidan, and three mesocosms were amended with the polysaccharide arabinogalactan. One mesocosm from each depth and station was left unamended.

These data help test this model because they provide information about the activities of exo-acting glucosidases and an exo-acting peptidase, plus endo-acting peptidases, all of which are used to hydrolyze high molecular weight organic matter. Activities of these enzymes differed by station as well as by depth

[Percent cover measure of mussel bed succession on rocky shores due to intra-population variation in dogwhelk drilling] - Percent cover measure of mussel bed succession on rocky shores due to intra-population variation in dogwhelk drilling (Coastal mosaics of local adaptation and the eco-evolutionary dynamics of a marine predator-prey interaction)

Summary:
Despite growing interest of eco-evolutionary dynamics, there have been few experiments that test the importance of these feedbacks in natural ecosystems at the community level. A selection experiment on intra-population variation in dogwhelk (Nucella canaliculata) drilling was performed in the laboratory. Dogwhelks were given one of four early-life diet treatments (thin-shelled Mytilus trossulus mussels, two treatments of M. californianus from two populations known to differ in shell thickness, and acorn barnacles) for the first 3 months of life. Surviving adult dogwhelks were outplanted to field cages at Bodega Marine Reserve to test the ecological consequences of divergent phenotypes. Mussel bed succession was quantified by percent cover of sessile organisms in the plots over the course of approximately one year.

[percent_activity] - Percent activity of organic fractions from diatoms that bind with radionuclide (Biopolymers as carrier phases for selected natural radionuclides (of Th, Pa, Pb, Po, Be) in diatoms and coccolithophores)

Summary:
Percent amount of organic fractions from diatoms that bind with radionuclide. In order to investigate the importance of biogenic silica associated biopolymers on the scavenging of radionuclides, the diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum was incubated together with the radionuclides 234Th, 233Pa, 210Pb, and 7Be during their growth phase. Normalized affinity coefficients were determined for the radionuclides bound with different organic compound classes (i.e., proteins, total carbohydrates, uronic acids) in extracellular (nonattached and attached exopolymeric substances), intracellular (ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid and sodium dodecyl sulfate extractable), and frustule embedded biopolymeric fractions (BF). Results indicated that radionuclides were mostly concentrated in frustule BF. Among three measured organic components, Uronic acids showed the strongest affinities to all tested radionuclides. Confirmed by spectrophotometry and two-dimensional heteronuclear single quantum coherence-nuclear magnetic resonance analyses, the frustule BF were mainly composed of carboxyl-rich, aliphatic-phosphoproteins, which were likely responsible for the strong binding of many of the radionuclides. Results from this study provide evidence for selective absorption of radionuclides with different kinds of diatom-associated biopolymers acting in concert rather than as a single compound. This clearly indicates the importance of these diatom-related biopolymers, especially frustule biopolymers, in the scavenging and fractionation of radionuclides used as particle tracers in the ocean.

[Performance of coral and sea anemone early life stages under normoxic and hypoxic conditions] - Performance of coral and sea anemone early life stages under normoxic and hypoxic conditions from lab and field experiments performed in Pennsylvania (USA) and Bermuda in 2023-2024 (CAREER: Helping or hindering? Determining the influence of repetitive marine heatwaves on acclimatization of reef-building corals across biological scales)

Summary:
This dataset arose from a project in which we investigated how hypoxia influences coral and sea anemone early life stages by comparing hypoxia responses across larvae and juveniles of three cnidarian species representing a range of life histories: the reef-building coral Galaxea fascicularis, a broadcast spawner with horizontal transmission of endosymbiotic algae (family Symbiodiniaceae); the reef-building coral Porites astreoides, a brooder with vertical endosymbiont transmission; and the estuarine sea anemone Nematostella vectensis, a non-symbiotic broadcast spawner. Specifically, larvae were exposed to normoxic (i.e., controls) or hypoxic (dissolved oxygen < 2 mg L−1 for 6 h) conditions before being cultured (under normoxia) through the juvenile stage. Data pertaining to organismal performance—including size, ash-free dry weight, protein content, chlorophyll content, symbiont density, photosynthesis and respiration rates, photochemical yield, heat tolerance (survival and Fv/Fm), settlement rate, and swimming behavior—were collected at several time points alongside environmental variables such as temperature, salinity, and dissolved oxygen concentration.

[Peroxide quantification in T. testudinum tissue] - Peroxide quantification in Thalassia testudinum tissue and response to pathogenic Labyrinthula in seagrass collected February 2024 in Tampa Bay, Florida (Collaborative Research: VIDA Seagrass: Viral Infection Dynamics Among Seagrass)

Summary:
This dataset presents results of peroxide assays and concentrations of hydrogen peroxide from seagrass tissue. While seagrass serve as a vital foundation species in many coastal ecosystems, investigations of marine host-pathogen interactions continue to be underexplored and provide insights into the biological factors leading to seagrass die-offs. Infection of the marine subtropical seagrass Thalassia testudinum (Banks ex König) by pathogenic Labyrinthula sp. was found to induce alterations to the host's oxidative metabolism over the early stages of infection (monitored over a 72-hr time course). In planta hydrogen peroxide levels provided supporting evidence of a coordinated hypersensitive response in the host plant following infection by the etiological agent of seagrass wasting disease, pathogenic Labyrinthula sp.

[pH internal Consistency Experiment: Measured pH and nutrients] - Measured pH and nutrient data acquired during the pH internal consistency experiment. (Improving Accuracy and Precision of Marine Inorganic Carbon Measurements)

Summary:
These data include the measured pHt, total alkalinity, dissolved inorganic carbon, raw pHt absorbance, and calculated pHt of 25 batches of seawater as a function of temperature, salinity, and pCO2. These data were used to evaluate the internal consistency of 120 different possible combinations of CO2 system constants.

The marine inorganic carbon system can be calculated with two measured parameters due to thermodynamic relationships. However, there are many different parameterizations for the required constants and the most accurate or best is not known. These data were used to evaluate the constants and make recommendations for which constants to use, and how to perform CO2 system calculations.
