Description
These data belong in the paper:
M. Masdeu-Navarro, J-F. Mangot, L. Xue, M. Cabrera-Brufau, S.G. Gardner, D.J. Kieber, J.M. González, R. Simó (2022). Spatial and diel patterns of volatile organic compounds, DMSP-derived compopunds and planktonic microorganisms around a tropical scleractinian coral colony. Frontiers in Marine Science.
Concentrations of DMSP, acrylate, DMSO, DMS, DMDS, COS, CS2, isoprene, CH3I, CH2ClI, CH2Br2 and CHBr3 in seawater samples around colonies of the corals Acropora pulchra and Pocillopora sp., and the brown seaweed Turbinaria ornata. Abundances of high-DNA and low-DNA bacteria, Prochlorococcus, Synechococcus, picoeukaryotes and nanoeukaryotes in the same samples, as determined by flow cytometry. All samples were collected in April 2018 in the coral reefs of Mo'orea, French Polynesia.
The upper set of data contains concentrations at the distance of 0.5 cm from the coral polyps on the branch tips or verrucae, as well as from the seaweed thalli (samples IN), and 2 m away, downcurrent (samples OUT). The second set of data corresponds to A. pulchra only, and contains seawater samples IN, OUT and AL, the latter being sampled at 0.5 cm from the base of the dead branches colonized by a turf alga. IN, OUT and AL samples were collected over an entire diel cycle, every 6 hours for a period of 30 hours.
