Abstract
These data build off of experimental incubations described in Dataset 1 and 2. To contextualize laboratory incubations, we measured periostracum cover of live California mussels from multiple microhabitats (relative tidal height and degree of sun exposure) in our focal sample population. This dataset represents periostracum cover measurements of California Mussels, Mytilus californianus, conducted at Marshall Gulch Beach, CA in July and August 2022.
Dataset 1: Lab incubations of mussels (Mytilus californianus) examining the influence of periostracum cover and pH on external shell dissolution at Marshall Gulch Beach, CA from August 2021 to March 2022 (see BCO-DMO related dataset)
Dataset 2: Lab incubations of mussels (Mytilus californianus) examining the influence of periostracum cover and pH on external shell dissolution at Marshall Gulch Beach, CA from August 2021 to March 2022 (see BCO-DMO related dataset)
