    Microbial signatures of protected and impacted Northern Caribbean reefs: changes from Cuba to the Florida Keys.

    There are a few baseline reef‐systems available for understanding the microbiology of healthy coral reefs and their surrounding seawater. Here, we examined the seawater microbial ecology of 25 Northern Caribbean reefs varying in human impact and protection in Cuba and the Florida Keys, USA, by measuring nutrient concentrations, microbial abundances, and respiration rates as well as sequencing bacterial and archaeal amplicons and community functional genes. Overall, seawater microbial composition and biogeochemistry were influenced by reef location and hydrogeography. Seawater from the highly protected ‘crown jewel’ offshore reefs in Jardines de la Reina, Cuba had low concentrations of nutrients and organic carbon, abundant Prochlorococcus, and high microbial community alpha diversity. Seawater from the less protected system of Los Canarreos, Cuba had elevated microbial community beta‐diversity whereas waters from the most impacted nearshore reefs in the Florida Keys contained high organic carbon and nitrogen concentrations and potential microbial functions characteristic of microbialized reefs. Each reef system had distinct microbial signatures and within this context, we propose that the protection and offshore nature of Jardines de la Reina may preserve the oligotrophic paradigm and the metabolic dependence of the community on primary production by picocyanobacteria.

    Colony sizes and morphometric assessments of Acropora cervicornis genotypes sampled July 2020 for fecundity analysis at Mote Marine Laboratory
    (Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO). Contact: bco-dmo-data@whoi.edu, 2022-03-24) Koch, Hanna ; Azu, Yuen ; Bartels, Erich ; Muller, Erinn
    Fecundity was assessed for Acropora cervicornis corals with known disease susceptibility. This dataset presents morphometric assessments and information on colony sizes of 10 replicate adult colonies from 12 genets held in Mote Marine Lab’s spawning nurseries.

    Primary fecundity was assessed for Acropora cervicornis corals with known disease susceptibility. This dataset presents information on oocyte sizes from dissections of coral polyps from five adult colonies containing 12 genets held in Mote Marine Lab’s spawning nurseries.

    Fecundity assessment of Acropora cervicornis colonies from spawning observations and gamete bundle analysis in August 2020 at Mote Marine Laboratory
    (Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO). Contact: bco-dmo-data@whoi.edu, 2022-03-24) Koch, Hanna ; Azu, Yuen ; Bartels, Erich ; Muller, Erinn
    As a secondary assessment of fecundity, colonies of Acropora cerviconis (various genets) were taken to Mote Marine Laboratory in August 2020 for spawning and ex situ assisted sexual reproduction. From genets that spawned, forty random gamete bundles were collected during spawning and the total number of eggs and sperm per bundle were quantified.
