Downloadable DataCTD, pH and Oxygen Data from Kaneohe Bay, Oahu, Hawaii 2004-2009 on R/V Kaholo in Support of Carbon Cycle Research (NCEI Accession 0099831)
Coastal oceans are most likely to be impacted by anthropogenic activities because they are typically shallow and have more restricted water circulation than the open ocean. Kaneohe Bay served as a test site to gain insight into aspects of the carbon cycle...

ResourceProtein evolution in two co-occurring types of Symbiodinium: an exploration into the genetic basis of thermal tolerance in Symbiodinium clade D
"The symbiosis between reef-building corals and photosynthetic dinoflagellates (Symbiodinium) is an integral part of the coral reef ecosystem, as corals are dependent on Symbiodinium for the majority of their energy needs. However, this partnership is inc...
ResourceChanges in coral reef community structure along a sediment gradient in Fouha Bay, Guam
High sedimentation rates have well-documented, deleterious impacts on coral reefs. However, few previous studies have attempted to quantitatively describe a coral reef community across a large continuous sediment gradient. In this study distinct benthic a...
