Abstract

Sex-specific thermal stress survivorship measurements from two copepod populations in the Coastal Northwest Atlantic Surface Waters from 2017-07-16 to 2017-08-25

Detailed methods are presented in Sasaki et al. 2019 (DOI: 10.1098/rsos.182115). Copepods were collected from two locations across the Northwest Atlantic (recorded in the Pop column). Populations were maintained at the UConn Avery Point campus for over three generations at 18oC, with a 12:12 light:dark cycle and a diet of Tetrasemis sp., Thalassiosira weissflogii, and Rhodomonas salina.
