Abstract

Tank conditions for pH experiments on Lophelia pertusa specimens collected in the Norwegian Skagerrak and the Gulf of Mexico (Lophelia OA project)

Data describing tank conditions from pH manipulation experiments on Lophelia pertusa. Specimens were collected from Tisler Reef in the Norwegian Skagerrak and from the Gulf of Mexico.
