Directories and files in 0-data/File: Maui Algal Delta-N15 Coastline Survey 2007.xls Format: MS Office Excel 97-2003 WorksheetContent: delta-15 Nitrogen derived via algal species from around Maui during 2007Columns: self-explanatory with additional notes below Species Codes:Ahn: Ahnfeltiopsis concinnaHink: Asteronema breviarticulatum (formally known as Hinksia breviarticulatum and I still call it Hink :)) Ent: Enteromorpha intestinalisUlv: Ulva fasciataCla: Cladophora sericeaHyp: Hypnea musciformisAc: Acanthophora spiciferaLast four columns: Ave = Average, SE = Standard Error (the standard
deviation divided by the number of samples, in this case 3) Other definition for these columns deltaN15 is simplistically decribed as the ratio of N15 to N14. However there is a formula (provided below) that calculates deltaN15 unfortunately it is not simply the ratio of the two isotopes. delta15N (ppt) = ((Rsample/Rstandard) 1) x 103, where R = 15N/14N

Hawaii Coral Reef Initiative
To better understand the nitrogen source for the algal blooms and to assess the urchin and algae species and coverage in the Kahekili HFMA. A high ratio of N15 is thought to indicate a source from a well, a low ratio a source from runoff, perhaps from excess fertilizer.
