NCSU62 (Nov. 19, 2013)-Did not dive at NCSU63-NCSU66

Attacked (literally!) by frigate birds en route to the site of night dive 5 (Nov. 20, 2013)

Surprise Atoll-New Caledonia night dive 5 (Nov. 20, 2013)

NC-night dive 5 sampled colonies (n=7): day. No daytime images were taken of colonies 103 and 104; please see the night time images posted below for the associated data for these colonies.

colony 98

Pocillopora damicornis genotype alpha

This colony was sampled in the day and night, though only the daytime sample was analyzed in full: JMP Excel supplemental data

colony 98-macro

Pocillopora damicornis genotype alpha

colony 99

Pocillopora damicornis genotype alpha

This colony was sampled in the day and night, though, for some reason, only the night time sample was analyzed in detail. Data are associated with the image taken at night. Supplemental colony data can be found here.

colony 99-macro

Pocillopora damicornis genotype alpha

colony 100

Pocillopora damicornis genotype alpha

This colony was sampled during both light and day. All data can be found here: JMP Excel supplemental data

colony 100-macro

Pocillopora damicornis genotype alpha

colony 101

Pocillopora damicornis genotype alpha

This colony was sampled during both day and night, though the samples were mixed up and so were not analyzed in detail. Supplemental data can be found here.

colony 101-macro

Pocillopora damicornis genotype alpha

colony 102

Pocillopora damicornis genotype alpha

This colony was sampled in both day and night: JMP Excel Supplemental data

colony 102-macro

Pocillopora damicornis genotype alpha

New Caledonia night dive #5 sampled colonies (n=7): night

colony 98-night

Pocillopora damicornis genotype alpha

For some reason, the night biopsy was extracted but not analyzed, so I will go back and do it in the future. Other data can be found here.
