NCCOS Assessment: Investigating the effects of chronic turbidity exposure to priority Florida coral species, Orbicella faveolata 2023-09-19 to 2023-12-12 (NCEI Accession 0303582)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Metadata Last Checked: October 04, 2025 | Last Modified: 2025-04-29T00:00:00.000+00:00

This dataset is comprised of many biochemical analyses performed throughout the course of a 90-day laboratory exposure experiments to determine the chronic effects of fine-sediment generated turbidity on the health of Orbicella faveolata coral nubbins. Biological endpoints such as photographs, buoyant weight and PAM fluorometry measurements were performed weekly, while tissue regeneration post-wounding, dry weight, total lipids, total proteins, and symbiont density were calculated at the end of the 90 day exposure.
