Abstract

Thermal growth rates for 24 strains representing 5 species from the diatom genus Skeletonema, as analyzed in Anderson and Rynearson, 2020. Strains were grown at temperatures ranging from -2 to 36C to assess how inter- and intraspecific thermal trait variability could explain diatom community dynamics.

Cite Dataset

This dataset includes experimental thermal growth measurements from five Skeletonema species. Strains were collected at Narragansett Bay, Rhode Island and obtained from the National Center for Marine Algae and Microbiota (NCMA/CCMP), and grown at varying temperatures.
