Coral gene expression Sequence Read Archive (SRA) accession numbers and information for samples collected at the Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary in the Gulf of Mexico in September and October of 2017 to capture effects of Hurricane Harvey
Abstract: 
To capture the immediate effects of storm-driven freshwater runoff on coral and symbiont physiology, we leveraged the heavy rainfall associated with Hurricane Harvey in late August 2017 by sampling FGB coral gene expression at two time points: September 2017, when surface water salinity was reduced (∼34 ppt); and 1 month later when salinity had returned to typical levels (∼36 ppt in October 2017). This dataset includes Sequence Read Archive (SRA) and BioSample accessions under BioProject PRJNA552981 at The National Center for Biotechnology Information. It also contains sample information and species names for samples collected the east and west banks of the Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary (FGBNMS) at 80ft. These data were published in Wright et al. (2019).
