The Ocean Archive System searches our original datasets as they were submitted to us, not individual points or profiles. If you want to search and retrieve ocean profiles in a common format, or objectively analyzed fields, your better option may be to use one of our project applications. See: Access Data

| Title: | National Coral Reef Monitoring Program: Assessment of fish communities in the Florida Reef Tract from 2016-05-01 to 2016-12-15 (NCEI Accession 0169400) |
| Abstract: | The stationary point count method (7.5m radius cylinder) is used to conduct fish surveys in Florida as part of the National Coral Reef Monitoring Program (NCRMP). This method collects and reports information on species composition, density, size structure, abundance and derived metrics (e.g., species richness, diversity). Data provided in this data set are from three (3) distinct regions along the Florida reef tract; 1) Dry Tortugas, 2) Florida Keys from Key West north to Miami and 3) Miami north to Martin County. Data are collected using a 2-stage, stratified random survey design. Lead agencies involved include the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Southeast Fisheries Science Center (NOAA Fisheries) and National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science (NCCOS). |

| Supplementary information: | Submission Package ID: 1R1HFG Submitter's note: The raw data and processing files in this package were originally intended to only be distributed by request in order to ensure that the data were used properly. After further consideration, these data were included here to guard against data loss in the case of personal computer or local server catastrophe. The submitter still recommends that anyone interested in the raw data in this package contact him before using it. The raw and verify data sets are used to create the Analysis Ready (AR) datasets. It is the AR datasets that the submitter intended to make public and easily accessible. |
