Temperature data measured during a heatwave experiment done September to November 2018 using reef building corals collected in Kāne'ohe Bay, O'ahu, Hawai'i

Two common reef-building corals, Montipora capitata and Pocillopora acuta, were collected from six sites in Kāne'ohe Bay, O'ahu, Hawai'i. Fragments were allowed to acclimate in experimental tanks for two weeks prior to exposure to one of the following four treatments: Ambient Temperature Ambient pCO2 (ATAC), Ambient Temperature High pCO2 (ATHC), High Temperature Ambient pCO2 (HTAC), and High Temperature High pCO2 (HTHC). The treatment period lasted for a two month period, starting on September 22nd, 2018 and lasting through November 17th, 2018. Following the stress period, coral fragments were exposed to a two-month recovery period in ambient conditions. HOBO loggers were placed in each tank and recorded temperature every ten minutes.本研究从夏威夷州瓦胡岛卡内奥赫湾的6个采样位点采集了两种常见造礁珊瑚：头状微孔珊瑚（Montipora capitata）与尖枝列孔珊瑚（Pocillopora acuta）。将获取的珊瑚断枝置于实验水族箱中驯化培养两周，随后分别接受以下四种实验处理组之一：常温常二氧化碳分压（pCO2）组（ATAC）、常温高二氧化碳分压组（ATHC）、高温常二氧化碳分压组（HTAC）以及高温高二氧化碳分压组（HTHC）。实验处理周期持续两个月，起始时间为2018年9月22日，至2018年11月17日结束。胁迫处理完成后，将珊瑚断枝置于正常环境条件下开展为期两个月的恢复培养。每个实验水族箱中均放置HOBO温度记录仪，每十分钟记录一次水温数据。
