Title: American Samoa Territorial Monitoring Program: Assessment of coral reef benthic and fish communities in American Samoa from 2005-03-10 to 2017-04-21 (NCEI Accession 0232256)
Abstract: The data described here result from coral reef assessments of reef slopes (10m depth) at permanent sites around Tutuila, American Samoa as part of the ongoing American Samoa Coral Reef Monitoring Program (ASCRMP). These surveys were conducted by members of the American Samoa Coral Reef Advisory Group between 2005 and 2017. The data was collected via SCUBA surveys and reports on coral, benthic and fish composition and derived metrics (e.g., benthic cover, coral diversity, fish diversity, fish biomass).
