Water chemistry and temperature measured within and above dense aggregations of mussels during a flume experiment conducted July 2023

<p>This data is&nbsp;from a flume experiment undertaken at Friday Harbor Laboratories in July 2023 as part of a project investigating how the complex 3D structure and metabolic activity of dense aggregations of marine organisms can alter interstitial water chemistry, and how these microscale alterations affect interactions in coastal ecosystems.&nbsp;</p>

<p>This dataset presents:</p>

<p>1. Bulk seawater chemistry measurements using HOBO loggers for dissolved oxygen, pH/Temp, and Conductivity<br />
2. Interstitial water chemistry measurements using Pyroscience microsensors for oxygen, pH, and temperature</p>

<p>Additional data on velocity and turbulence measurements using a Nortek Vectrino can be viewed at https://www.bco-dmo.org/dataset/982717&nbsp;(see also Related Datasets section below).</p>
