Pocillopora damicornis larvae pCO2 x temperature experiment. This project was carried out with collaborator Dr. Hollie Putnam. The experiment is described in Putnam et al. (2013), and this publication also features some physiological and molecular data. We are now analyzing the transcriptomes of the larvae reared at control conditions (n=3), as well as those exposed to elevated temperatures and pCO2 levels for 1-2 weeks (n=3).
