Abstract:

Here, we exposed the early life stages of Pocillopora acuta in Kāne'ohe Bay, Hawai'i, USA, a common reef-building coral throughout the Pacific, to projected ocean warming and acidification scenarios. We measured ecological, physiological, biomineralisation and molecular responses across the critical transition from larvae to newly settled recruits following 6 days of exposure to diel fluctuations in temperature and pH in Control (26.8°C–27.9°C, 7.82–7.96 pHTotal), Mid (28.4°C–29.5°C, 7.65–7.79 pHTotal) and High conditions (30.2°C–31.5°C, 7.44–7.59 pHTotal).

This dataset is included in the OA-ICC data compilation maintained in the framework of the IAEA Ocean Acidification International Coordination Centre (see https://oa-icc.ipsl.fr). Original data were downloaded from github (see Source) by the OA-ICC data curator. In order to allow full comparability with other ocean acidification data sets, the R package seacarb (Gattuso et al, 2024) was used to compute a complete and consistent set of carbonate system variables, as described by Nisumaa et al. (2010). In this dataset the original values were archived in addition with the recalculated parameters (see related PI). The date of carbonate chemistry calculation by seacarb is 2025-11-04.
