Field Study Permissions

The following information was supplied relating to field study approvals (i.e., approving body and any reference numbers):

Collections were made under special activity permit # SAP2011-1 to the Hawaii Institute of Marine Biology at the University of Hawaii at Manoa.

Data Deposition

The following information was supplied regarding the deposition of related data:

All environmental data is available on the PANGAEA data portal (http://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.846699). Secondary accretion and erosion data will be submitted to PANGAEA once accepted. I will update this statement then.

Funding

Funding for this project came from NOAA Office of National Marine Sanctuaries-HIMB partnership (MOA #2009-039/7932), National Science Foundation EPSCoR Hawai’i, NOAA Dr. Nancy Foster Scholarship to N.J.S., Sigma-Xi GIAR to N.J.S., and by Hawai’i Sea Grants #1889 to F.I.M.T and #1847 to M.J.D. and F.I.M.T. This paper is funded in part by a grant/cooperative agreement from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Project No. R/IR-18, which is sponsored by the University of Hawai’i Sea Grant College Program, School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology, under Institutional Grant No. NA09OAR4170060 Office of Sea Grant, Department of Commerce.
