Abstract

Data generated from laboratory experiments that investigated the influence of the dissolved oxygen concentration, salinity, and temperature of seawater on plaque attachment as the material aged. Mussels (M. trossulus) were collected from Penn Cove Shellfish, Quilcene Bay, Quilcene, Washington, USA [47°47’42.0” N, 122°51”10.8” W] and held experimental aquaria at the University of Washington in Seattle, Washington, USA for up to 14 days. Mussels produced threads over the course of 4 hrs that were ...

Data generated from laboratory experiments that investigated the influence of the dissolved oxygen concentration, salinity, and temperature of seawater on plaque attachment as the material aged. Mussels (M. trossulus) were collected from Penn Cove Shellfish, Quilcene Bay, Quilcene, Washington, USA [47°47’42.0” N, 122°51”10.8” W] and held experimental aquaria at the University of Washington in Seattle, Washington, USA for up to 14 days. Mussels produced threads over the course of 4 hrs that were incubated in a range of dissolved oxygen, temperature, and salinity conditions for up to 12 days. Adhesive plaques were then pulled to failure to determine adhesion strength. These data accompany the manuscript (George, M.N., Pedigo, B., and Carrington, E. 2018).
