Abstract

Seawater chemistry parameters (temperature, salinity, pH, pCO2, total alkalinity, aragonite saturation state) were measured during pCO2 flume experiments with Pocillopora verrucosa and Acropora hyacinthus corals in either ambient or elevated pCO2 levels. The experiments were conducted at Richard B Gump Research Station in Moorea, French Polynesia from May to June of 2014.
