Dry weight, buoyant weight, and surface area data for the S. siderea coral specimens investigated for the study: Impact of ocean acidification on coral (Siderastrea siderea) calcification and corallite morphology. Dry weights were calculated using the empirically derived buoyant weight-dry weight regression equations.
