Title: Acropora cervicornis population data during bleaching events from shoreside Florida_Coral_Reefs Coral_Bleaching_FRRP in the Florida Reef Tract from 2014-2015 (EMUCoReS project) (NCEI Accession 0277365)
Abstract: This dataset contains biological and survey - biological data collected at shoreside Florida_Coral_Reefs during deployment Coral_Bleaching_FRRP in the Gulf of Mexico and North Atlantic Ocean from 2014-01-01 to 2015-12-31. These data include species. These data were collected by Dr Laurie Richardson and Dr Mauricio Rodriguez-Lanetty of Florida International University and Dr Diego Lirman of University of Miami Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science as part of the "RAPID: A hyper-thermal anomaly in the Florida Reef Tract: An opportunity to explore the mechanisms underpinning patterns of coral bleaching and disease (EMUCoReS)" project. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2023-01-23.

Acropora cervicornis population data during bleaching events

Dataset Description:
Acquisition Description:
Colonies of Acropora cervicornis were surveyed for annual Florida Reef Resilience Program (FRRP) Disturbance Response Monitoring during the summers of 2014 and 2015. At each site, two independent 1x10m belt transects were randomly placed and indicators were then recorded for all stony corals greater than 4cm including: 1) hard coral size (maximum height and diameter) and 2) hard coral condition as determined by the presence of bleaching and paling, presence of disease, and percent recent or old morality.

A full description of the FRRP program is available at their website: www.frrp.org .
