Summary: | This data set includes census based carbonate budget data that was collected in coral reef habitats located in Puerto Rico. Surveys (based on Perry et al 2012) were collected over one week near Cayo Enrique on the south side of the island. Six transect surveys (10m each) were conducted to quantify benthic cover, macrobioerosion, and microbioerosion. Ten parrotfish surveys were also conducted to account for parrotfish erosion rates. This carbonate budget data along with other sea water chemistry data collected were used to establish a Class III monitoring site on the south side of Puerto Rico. |
