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: | Coral densities and extension rates from scientific literature collected in the field or in laboratories from 2017-06-02 to 2018-06-24 (NCEI Accession 0277376) |
| Abstract: | This dataset contains biological, physical, and survey - biological data collected at shoreside Micronesia, shoreside Palau, and shoreside Yap during deployments vanWoesik_FSM_2018, vanWoesik_Palau_2017, and vanWoesik_Yap_2017 from 2017-06-02 to 2018-06-24. These data include density, growth, and species. These data were collected by Robert van Woesik of Florida Institute of Technology as part of the "Adjustment of western Pacific Ocean coral reefs to sea-level rise and ocean warming (Coral Reef Adjustment)" project. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2023-01-23. The following is the text of the dataset description provided by BCO-DMO: coral species info Dataset Description: These data were published in van Woesik & Cacciapaglia (2018) and van Woesik & Cacciapaglia (2019). |

| Supplementary information: | Acquisition Description: Coral growth rates and densities were derived from the Prachett et al. (2015) dataset. Averages were estimated between the minimum and maximum values. Both extension rates and densities were estimated to the lowest taxonomic level. When the species-level data were not available, the average of genus-specific data was used. Personal observations were used to increase the sample size and increase confidence in the data. |
