Coral reef carbonate chemistry reveals interannual, seasonal, and spatial impacts on ocean acidification off Florida

Journal: Global Biogeochemical Cycles doi:10.1029/2023GB007789

Description:

We characterized the carbonate chemistry at 38 permanent stations located along 10 inshore-offshore transects spanning 250 km of the Florida Coral Reef (FCR), which encompass four major biogeographic regions (Biscayne Bay, Upper Keys, Middle Keys, and Lower Keys) and four shelf zones (inshore, mid-channel, offshore, and oceanic). Data have been collected since 2010, with approximately bi-monthly periodicity starting in 2015. We used these data to asses

• Spatial differences
• Seasonality
• Interannual trends
