Carbonate Budget data of the Southeast Florida Coral Reef Initiative (SEFCRI) region from 2014-09-29 to 2014-10-17 (NCEI Accession 0156913)

This data set includes census based carbonate budget data that was collected in coral reef habitats located within the SEFCRI region. Surveys (based on Perry et al 2012) were collected over the course of several weeks at four major sites: Emerald, Oakland Ridge, Barracuda, and Pillars. Within each o...

Description
Summary:This data set includes census based carbonate budget data that was collected in coral reef habitats located within the SEFCRI region. Surveys (based on Perry et al 2012) were collected over the course of several weeks at four major sites: Emerald, Oakland Ridge, Barracuda, and Pillars. Within each of these sites, 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 at each site. This carbonate budget data along with other sea water chemistry data collected were used to inform the overall project looking at the sensitivity of the SEFCRI region to OA.
