Chitosan Porites lobata growth and water quality data
Description
This dataset includes data for tissue surface area, calcification, and water quality (turbidity and PAR) for an experiment that exposed the stony coral, Porites lobata, to the flocculant, chitosan.
This dataset is associated with the following publications:
Hankins, C., K. McDaniel, A. Glahn, D. Lasseigne, and J. Slay. Chitosan has the potential to improve water quality without negative effects on the stony coral, Porites lobata. Presented at SETAC North America 45th Annual Meeting, Fort Worth, TX, USA, 10/20/2024 - 10/24/2024.
