Coral pulse amplitude modulation (PAM) fluorometry data from a heating experiment using samples collected from Nikko Bay and Rebotel Reef in Palau in the spring of 2018

<p>This work was conducted in the island nation of Palau. Coral colonies were sampled from an inshore location (Ngermid Bay, also known as Nikko Bay) and an offshore location on the western barrier reef surrounding Palau (Rebotel Reef). Sampled colonies were returned to land and treated in a thermal experiment at the Palau International Coral Reef Center in land-based aquariums.</p>本研究开展于岛国帕劳。研究人员从两处地点采集珊瑚群落：一处为近岸的恩吉姆德湾（Ngermid Bay，又名日和湾（Nikko Bay）），另一处为环绕帕劳的西部堡礁上的雷博特尔礁（Rebotel Reef）。采集得到的珊瑚群落被运回陆地，随后在帕劳国际珊瑚礁中心（Palau International Coral Reef Center）的陆地水族箱内开展热胁迫实验。
