The effects of elevated temperature and acidification on the biodiversity of coral reef cryptobenthic communities that recruited Autonomous Reef Monitoring Structures placed within mesocosms at the Hawaii Institute of Marine Biology between July 2016 and June 2018

The data described here includes cytochrome oxidase I (COI) DNA metabarcoding data collected from modified Autonomous Reef Monitoring Structures deployed in mesocosms at the Hawaii Institute of Marine Biology as part of an Ocean Acidification Program funded project granted to NOAA's Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center (PIFSC), Ecosystem Science Division (formerly known as the Coral Reef Ecosystem Division). Treatments in this fully factorial mesocosm experiment included present-day pH and temperature (Ambient treatment), ocean acidification (-0.2 pH units - Acidified treatment), ocean warming (+2°C - Heated treatment), and future ocean combined stressors (-0.2 pH units and +2 °C - Acidified-Heated treatment). ARMS were placed in replicated mesocosms for each treatment on July 2016 and removed June 2018. Upon removal, the ARMS units were individually scraped clean, contents homogenized, and 10 grams were subsampled from each unit for COI DNA metabarcoding.
