Abstract

Carbonate chemistry was measured during two experiments that tested calcification rates of Acropora pulchra under approximated ambient and elevated temperature and pCO2 levels. The experiments took place between July and December of 2015 at the Richard B Gump Research Station, Moorea, French Polynesia.
