Description: A 9-month aquarium experiment with the cold-water Dendrophyllia cornigera was conducted to investigate the single and combined effects of warming, acidification and deoxygenation on its ecophysiological response. The experiment took place at the Aquarium finisterrae (A Coruña, Spain) between 2022-05-06 and 2023-02-24. Treatment values for each parameter (current in situ vs. climate change) were: 12 °C and 15 °C (temperature); ~7.99 and 7.69 (pH); ~8.63 mg/L and 6.45 mg/L (dissolved oxygen concentration). A total of eight treatments (with 3 replicates each, 5 L aquaria) were set up. Raspberry-based controllers were set to modify and monitor the water temperature, pH and dissolved oxygen in every treatment. Values for temperature (ºC), pH (NBS scale) and oxygen (% air saturation) were registered every 15 minutes in a database. The parameters were measured using PT100 temperature sensors, and Atlas Scientific Lab Grade pH and Dissolved Oxygen sensors. Every set of sensors was placed on each header tank, corresponding to each treatment (8 in total). Parameter setpoint values for each header tank were finely adjusted on the controller to ensure the treatment target values on each experimental aquaria. Oxygen sensors from treatments with ambient oxygen (~8.63 mg/L) were removed from the system due to calibration issues. Here, an example of the results for temperature, pH and oxygen for every header tank over 24 hours on 31st of December 2022 is presented. Values for pH (total scale) and dissolved oxygen (mg/L) were calculated using AquaEnv (Hofmann et al. 2010) and respR (Harianto et al. 2019) R packages, respectively, using the in situ temperature and salinity (35.1).

Description: Water column raw data using the ship's own Kongsberg EM 122 multibeam echosounder was not continuously recorded during RV METEOR cruise M122. Data was recorded on 10 days between 2015-12-31 and 2016-01-27. The data are archived at the Federal Maritime and Hydrographic Agency of Germany (Bundesamt für Seeschifffahrt und Hydrographie, BSH) and provided to PANGAEA database for data curation and publication. Ancillary sound velocity profiles (SVP) files from the cruise are archived at the BSH and added to the corresponding multibeam raw dataset https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.945013 This publication is conducted within the efforts of the German Marine Research Alliance in the core area 'Data management and Digitalization' (Deutsche Allianz Meeresforschung, DAM).
