Summary
This data release includes metadata and tabular data that documents changes in pH of anchialine pool water before, during and after diffusion of carbon dioxide (CO2) gas. These results are part of a study testing the efficacy of CO2 as tool for eradicating invasive fish from anchialine pools. The trials were conducted at Puuhonua o Honaunau National Historical Park and Kaloko-Honokohau National Historical Park, Hawaii, during 2021-2022.

Data were collected to document changes in the pH of anchialine pool water during trials testing the efficacy of using CO2 to eradicate invasive fish. Results from this study can provide park managers with information to better understand how CO2 can be used to manage invasive fish in anchialine pools.
