Incubation experiments were conducted in St. John, US Virgin Islands to investigate the macronutrient drawdown response of reef seawater microbial communities to exudates released from the coral species Porites astreoides and Gorgonia ventalina.

<p>Note: 
The macronutrient concentrations in this dataset reflect the raw data and have not been normalized (as is presented in the manuscript Weber et al., 2022)</p>

<p>The targeted and untargeted metabolomics data and metadata associated with this study are located on the MetaboLights database under accession numbers MTBLS2855 and MTBLS3286.</p>

<p>The 16S rRNA gene sequencing data and metadata associated with this study are located on the NCBI Sequence Read Archive (SRA) under BioProject PRJNA739882. BioSample accession numbers are not linked with the data submitted to BCO-DMO because samples for flow cytometry and macronutrients were not always collected at the same time as samples collected for microbial community analyses, meaning that only some of the samples collected for microbial community analyses have affiliated microbial abundances and nutrient concentrations.</p>
