<p>Light and dark calcification rates for the coral <em>Porites rus</em> and alga <em>Hydrolithon onkode</em> in varying carbonate chemistry conditions. These data are part of experiments performed during July/August 2011 in French Polynesia to test the effect of various concentrations of carbonate and bicarbonate ions on the calcification of a coral and a calcifying alga.</p> <p><strong>Related References:</strong></p> <p>Comeau, S., Carpenter, R.
