Summary of otolith microstructure data from Stegastes partitus collected by SCUBA dives in the Upper Florida Keys, USA from 2003-2008 (FK Fish Recruitment project, FK Population Connectivity project) (NCEI Accession 0278516)
This dataset contains biological and survey - biological data collected on FK_boat_dock during deployment Sponaugle_SCUBA_dives from 2001-06-13 to 2008-08-12. These data include growth and stage. The instruments used to collect these data include Microscope-Fluorescence. These data were collected by Su Sponaugle of University of Miami Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science as part of the "Linkages Between Larvae and Recruitment of Coral Reef Fishes Along the Florida Keys Shelf: an Integrated Field and Modeling Analysis of Population Connectivity in a Complex System (FK Population Connectivity)" and "Scope and Consequences of Variability in the Early Life History Traits of a Caribbean Coral Reef Fish (FK Fish Recruitment)" projects. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2020-01-27.

Supplemental Information | Acquisition Description: Collections were made over many small boat SCUBA dives from 2003-2008; cruises and dives were not numbered. The otoliths were extracted using standard dissecting techniques and placed in a drop of medium viscosity immersion oil on a microscope slide to clear for a minimum of 30 d. Based on ease of reading, only the lapilli were examined. The clearest lapillus was chosen from each individual and viewed under 400 magnification through a Leica DMLB microscope equipped with a polarized filter between the first stage and light source. The image was captured by a Dage MTI video camera and analyzed using Image Pro Plus 4.5 software (Media Cybernetics). Each otolith was read once blind (i.e., without sample information available) and saved as a digital file. Every 5th individual was measured a second time. The images of the remaining 1029 fish were examined to determine if there was any ambiguity in the placement of the increments and an additional 161 fish were aged a second time, resulting in a total of 418 fish aged twice. Otoliths were rejected where the difference between the first and second reads was > 5%, resulting in six exclusions. Otolith analysis was utilized to determine the following ELHTs: post-settlement age (number of concentric increments after the settlement mark), pelagic larval duration (PLD; number of concentric increments from the primordium to the settlement mark), larval and juvenile growth rates (widths between consecutive increments), and size-at-age (otolith radius-at-each age, including settlement). |
