Experimental evidence suggests that coral calcification decreases as aragonite saturation drops but increases as temperatures rise toward thresholds optimal for coral growth. In situ studies have documented alarming recent declines in calcification rates on several tropical coral reef ecosystems. We show there is no widespread pattern of consistent decline in calcification rates of massive Porites during the 20th century on reefs spanning an 11° latitudinal range in the southeast Indian Ocean off Western Australia. Increasing calcification rates on the high-latitude reefs contrast with the downward trajectory reported for corals on Australia's Great Barrier Reef and provide additional evidence that recent changes in coral calcification are responses to temperature rather than ocean acidification. #------------------ # Funding_Agency # Funding_Agency_Name: # Grant: #------------------ # Site_Information # Site_Name: Houtman Abrolhos Islands # Location: # Country: # Northernmost_Latitude: -28.4667 # Southernmost_Latitude: -28.4667 # Easternmost_Longitude: 113.7667 # Westernmost_Longitude: 113.7667 # Elevation: -6 #------------------ # Data_Collection # Collection_Name: Houtman calc Cooper2012 # Earliest_Year: 1900 # Most_Recent_Year: 2010 # Time_Unit: AD # Core_Length: # Notes: #------------------ # Species # Species_Name: Porites,Porites sp. # Species_Code: # Common_Name: #------------------ # Chronology_Section # Chronology: #------------------ # Variables # # Data variables follow that are preceded by "##" in columns one and two. # Data line variables format: Variables list, one per line, shortname-tab-longname-tab-longname components ( 10 components: what, material, error, units, seasonality, archive, detail, method, C or N for Character or Numeric data, additional_information) # ## year age, ,,years CE, , corals and sclerosponges, ,,N, ## calc_rate3 calcification rate,Porites sp. ,,g/cm/yr, , corals and sclerosponges, ,,N,from core 3 ## calc_rate1 calcification rate,Porites sp. ,,g/cm/yr, , corals and sclerosponges, ,,N,from core 1 ## calc_anom-comp% calcification rate,Porites sp. ,,percent,annual, corals and sclerosponges,anomalized ,,N,using 1900-2010 mean;
