Cite Dataset

Data from experiments examining the effect of CO2-induced ocean acidification on the scleractinian coral Oculina arbuscula.

For more information on the experimental methods and results, see Ries et al., 2010.

These data have also been deposited to PANGAEA where additional carbonate system variables were calculated as described by Nisumaa et al. (2010). See: http://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.754790
