title: Eelgrass shoot metrics from ecological field surveys in six regions along the eastern Pacific coast in June through August of 2019, 2020, and 2021.

description: These data were collected during ecological field surveys of eelgrass (Zostera marina) meadows along the eastern Pacific from southeastern Alaska to southern California. Parameters measured include seagrass morphology, meadow condition (e.g. shoot densities), and incidence and severity of eelgrass wasting disease. Data were collected within the intertidal area of 32 eelgrass meadows distributed in six regions (five-six meadows sampled in the regions of Alaska, British Columbia, Washington, Oregon, California - Bodega Bay, and California - San Diego). Surveys were conducted in between late June and early August in 2019, 2020, and 2021 by teams from six institutions. The influence of disease on seagrass dynamics is not well understood, and these data can further understanding of the environmental drivers of disease by connecting wasting disease with eelgrass condition across a broad geographic gradient.

title: Results from a meta-analysis investigating covariance between genetic and environmental (CovGE) effects in phenotypic results in published literature

description: Covariance can exist between the genetic and environmental influences on phenotype (CovGE)
and can have an important role in ecological and evolutionary processes in nature and population responses to environmental change. CovGE is commonly called countergradient variation (CnGV; negative CovGE)or cogradient variation (CoGV; positive CovGE)and has been recognized in classic studies that have established several long-standing hypotheses about CnGV and CoGV. For instance, it is hypothesized that CnGV is more prevalent in nature than CoGV, that CnGV is more prevalent in fish, amphibian, and invertebrate taxa, across latitudinal or altitudinal environmental gradients, and more frequently occurs in metabolic compensation traits, including development, growth, feeding, metabolism, and activity, while CoGV is more commonly observed in morphological traits. The recent development of a standardized method to measure CovGE allows for the first rigorous quantitative exploration of these hypotheses. We use meta-analysis and apply the novel quantitative method to test whether the above hypotheses are supported in the literature. We found no differences in frequency of CnGV and CoGV, and no systematic patterns relative to taxa, environmental gradient, or trait type. However, our analyses suggest that CovGE may be as common as gene by environment (GxE) interactions. Given that CovGE is likely to have a strong impact on future outcomes for organisms experiencing environmental change, that significant CovGE occurred frequently, and the lack of systematic patterns in the occurrence of CovGE, we encourage a more widespread application of measuring CovGE.

title: Results using simulated data used to conduct power analyses

description: Spatial covariance between genotypic and environmental influences on phenotypes (CovGE) can result in the nonrandom distribution of genotypes across environmental gradients and is a potentially important factor driving local adaptation. However, a framework to quantify the magnitude and significance of CovGE has been lacking. We develop a novel quantitative/analytical approach to estimate and test the significance of CovGE from reciprocal transplant or common garden experiments, which we validate using simulated data. We demonstrate how power to detect CovGE changes over a range of experimental designs. We confirm an inverse relationship between gene-by-environment interactions (GxE) and CovGE, as predicted by first principles, but show how phenotypes can be influenced by both. The metric provides a way to measure how phenotypic plasticity covaries with genetic differentiation and highlights the importance of understanding the dual influences of CovGE and GxE on phenotypes in studies of local adaptation and species’ responses to environmental change.

title: Dissolved oxygen and temperature data from loggers deployed in Bahia Almirante (Coral microbiome resilience project)

description: Ocean deoxygenation is a growing threat to marine life worldwide but our knowledge of oxygen dynamics in tropical coastal regions is poorly resolved. Here we provide high-resolution oxygen data for five coral reefs throughout Almirante Bay, Bocas del Toro, Panama. This current dataset includes a six-month record of hourly temperature and dissolved oxygen concentration measurements on five coral reefs, with two loggers taking data at each reef, one from a shallow (3 m) location and the other from a deeper (12 m) location. All loggers were deployed approx. 20 cm above the seafloor on concrete blocks that were nestled within the reef matrix. Preliminary data shows low oxygen values (&lt;1.0 mg/L) occurring in all the deep sites on all the reefs except one, i.e., Hospital Point. Additionally, near anoxic oxygen conditions (&gt; 0.3 mg/L) were measured on the Roldan Reef for approx. two weeks in February 2022. Loggers will continue to be serviced, calibrated, and maintained, and this dataset will be updated to create a three-year time-series of oxygen and temperature measurements at these tropical, coral-reef sites.

title: Carbonate chemistry, nutrient concentration, and dissolved oxygen concentration for discreet water samples collected during multiple cruises between June 2017 to Sept 2018 within Galveston Bay, TX

description: These data include carbonate chemistry, nutrient concentration, and dissolved oxygen concentration for discreet water samples collected within Galveston Bay, TX. Eight single day cruises were conducted quarterly aboard the R/V Lithos or R/V Trident from June 2017 through September 2018. In addition, discreet water samples were collected at sites 10 - 60 km outside the mouth of the bay and up to 15m deep to characterize incoming seawater to the bay. These samples were collected on three cruises (WTX1 - R/V Manta, WTX3 - R/V Manta, WTX4 - R/V Pelican) in June, August, and November 2017. Discreet water samples were collected for total alkalinity and dissolved inorganic carbon, dissolved oxygen, and dissolved nutrients. CTD profiles were collected at each sampling site. 

Stochastic coastal acidification events in response to high volume rainfall and runoff that often accompanies tropical cyclone events has the potential to represent a significant threat to valuable calcifying reef ecosystems. Understanding acidification response and recovery to such events is critical to improving conservation and protection of coastal ecosystems, like oyster and coral reefs, particularly as climate change continues and tropical cyclone rainfall intensity increases. These data assess the impact of the rainfall and runoff from Hurricane Harvey on the acidification levels in Galveston Bay, TX. Samples were collected and analyzed primarily by Tacey Hicks, with assistance from other students in Dr. Katie Shamberger ’s research group, at Texas A&M University.
