This dataset contains biological, chemical, and physical data collected from 2015-10-09 to 2016-11-03. These data include Carbon, Nitrogen, d13C, d15N, and taxon. The instruments used to collect these data include Laboratory Autosampler. These data were collected by Craig E. Nelson of University of Hawaii at Manoa as part of the "Collaborative Research: Dissolved organic matter feedbacks in coral reef resilience: The genomic & geochemical basis for microbial modulation of algal phase shifts (Coral DOM2)" project. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2020-09-09.

CN isotopes

Dataset Description:
This dataset carbon and nitrogen isotope ratios from experiments conducted at the University of Hawaii, Manoa in 2015.

Experiment CRANE (Coral Reef Acclimation to Nutrient Enrichment) identifies a month-long mesocosm incubation study designed to understand the response of the coral reef community to long-term nutrient exposure.

Acquisition Description:
Parameter Method
Final_mass_algae_g All of the algal biomass was taken from the benthos covered by the benthic chamber at the end of the experiment. Algae was taken back to the lab, sorted by species, cleaned of sediment and epiphytes with DI water. Algae was dried at 60 degrees Celsius for 3 days and a final dry weight was taken by species.
L_filtered 0.5-1.14L of seawater was taken out of the benthic chamber and filtered through a 0.2 um previously combusted glass fiber filter.
Weight_mg Sample is weighed during processing using a microbalance.
C, N Algal and phytoplankton samples were dried for 3 days at 60 degrees Celsius. Analysis of samples for carbon [ug C] and nitrogen [ug N], and isotopic composition [d13C (permil vs. PDB) and d15N (permil vs. AIR) ] was done using the following instrumentation: Costech ECS 4010 Elemental Combustion System/Zero Blank Autosampler /ThermoFinnigan MAT Conflo IV/ThermoFinnigan DeltaXP.
Purpose This dataset is available to the public for a wide variety of uses including scientific research and analysis.
