Physiological responses of the coral host and associated endosymbionts measured during two experiments testing the effects of acute and chronic thermal stress on the scleractinian coral, Stylophora pistillata

Abstract

This dataset describes physiological responses of the coral host and associated endosymbionts measured at the end of the heating hold period and after a recovery period during experiments conducted to test the effects of acute (18 h) and chronic (14 d) thermal stress on the scleractinian coral, Stylophora pistillata. Experiments were conducted in Eilat, Israel in January-February 2019. Methods and results are published in Evensen et al., 2021 (doi: 10.1002/lno.11715).
