Data from field research on Lithothamnion glaciale and mesocosms incubations designed to test the physiological response of this typically marine species to high glacial melt, or fjord-like conditions. This was done to determine reasons for low distribution in a major Greenlandic fjord system near Nuuk, Greenland. The data set includes mesocosms parameters, field measurements of environmental parameters, calcification, oxygen evolution, PAM measurements as well as growth metrics for individual maerl.
