Toxicity of 1-methylnaphthalene to Siderastrea siderea

The dataset includes toxicity information for the scleractinian coral species Siderastrea siderea following a 48-hour exposure to 1-methylnaphthalene. Laboratory assays were conducted at Nova Southeastern University Oceanographic Center. The dataset includes coral color/condition scores, photosynthetic efficiency (PAM) measurements, growth rate, and mortality of the coral nubbins at each time point. Also included is the concentration of 1-methylnaphthalene in each exposure chamber at the beginning and end of the exposure. This information is used to calculate the sublethal and lethal toxicity endpoints (EC50 and LC50) and critical body burden following application of the target lipid model.
