High Resolution sampling of dissolved organic matter (DOM) around Mo'orea coupled with macroalgal collections (Coral DOM2 project)

Abstract

Data was collected here in collaboration with the MCR-LTER group in July 2016. Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) samples were collected for us during an existing field project (Turbinaria tissue collections). The primary goal was to collect water from as many of ~180 Lagoon sites as possible to obtain high-resolution surface DOC dataset. This dataset includes dissolved organic carbon (DOC) measurements around the periphery of Mo'orea Island from July 26 to September 1, 2016. Samples were taken at 1-meter depth.

For a complete list of measurements, refer to the full dataset description in the supplemental file 'Dataset_description.pdf'. The most current version of this dataset is available at: https://www.bco-dmo.org/dataset/720234
