Description

The physiological development of brooded larvae from the pocilloporid corals Pocillopora damicornis and Seriatopora caliendrum in southern Taiwan was examined.

These data include seawater carbonate chemistry from experiments on the physiological development of brooded coral larvae conducted in June and July, 2010. Reported parameters include temperature, salinity, pH, total alkalinity, pCO2, bicarbonate and carbonate concentration, and the saturation state(omega)for aragonite.

These data are published in Cumbo, VR, Fan TY, Edmunds PJ. (2012) Physiological development of brooded larvae from two pocilloporid corals in Taiwan. Marine Biology 159: 2853-2866. DOI 10.1007/s00227-012-2046-y. See Table S1.
