Nature Reserve Reef Eilat metabolic data and graphs 2000-02 and 2015-16

The supplementary data includes Daily average, minimum and maximum of physical and chemical parameters in the NRR (Table S1); Occurrences of lagoon salinity decrease below fore reef values in the NRR during the 2015-16 campaigns (Table S2); daily cycle of CO2 Gas Exchange flux in the NRR During 24th-26th August 2016 (Fig. S1); Example for calculating the nighttime net dissolution from reconstruction of the TA in lagoon water due to water exchange with open sea water alone and the measured TA in reef water (Fig. S2); Additional cycles of TA and dissolved oxygen in the NRR lagoon and corresponding PAR in field campaigns made during 2015-16 (Fig. S3).
