Abstract

Porites calcification rates from Dongsha Atoll from cores collected on June 29, 2013 from 1954-2012. The two coral skeletal cores were collected from living Porites sp. colonies in June 2013 using an underwater pneumatic drill.

Cite Dataset

This dataset contains calcification rates for Porites coral 751 from Dongsha Atoll from 1954-2012. Calcification rates were collected by analyzing the CT scan of the coral.
