Acartia tonsa development time for transgenerational experiment

Abstract:

These data include development (i.e. maturation) time measurements for A. tonsa during multigenerational exposure to ocean warming (OW), ocean acidification (OA), and combined ocean warming and acidification (OWA) including a benign ambient condition temperature and CO2 control (AM). These data were collected every third generation between F0 and F15 and at F25 for all treatments. Data were calculated for naupliar development time (i.e. naupliar stage 1 to naupliar stage 6) and copepodite development time (i.e. copepodite stage 1 to adulthood).

Description

These data are part of at multigenerational experiment of Arcatia tonsa exposure to ocean warming (OW), ocean acidification (OA), and combined ocean warming and acidification (OWA) including a benign ambient condition temperature and CO2 control (AM). These data were collected every third generation between F0 and F15 and at F25 for all treatments.

Methods & Sampling

Development time was measured on 75 individuals from each replicate culture per treatment (n=4 per treatment). The 75 individuals were split among three 25-mL beakers. Life stage was measured every 2-3 days and recorded as either naupliar or copepodite. Average time through naupliar and copepodite development was calculated based on the proportion of individuals occupying each life stage over time. The target (actual ± standard deviation) conditions were as follows: ambient (AM) temperature = 18 °C (18 ± 0.34, N = 330), AM pCO2= 400 μatm (379 ± 36, N = 18; pH = 8.26 ± 0.1, N = 330); high temperature = 22 °C (22 ± 0.81, N = 336); and high pCO2= 2,000 µatm (2,301 ± 215, N = 18; pH = 7.55 ± 0.08, N = 330). AM target levels represented extant conditions for this species in northeast Atlantic estuaries.

Data Processing Description

Data was processed with R v4.0. by calculating a weighted average of the time it took to mature from nauplii to copepodite or from copepodite to adult.
