Title: Symbiodinium algae in foraminifer and corals in St. John, USVI on 2018-05-17 (NCEI Accession 0277427)
Abstract: This dataset contains biological and survey - biological data collected at Virgin Islands National Park during deployment Edmunds_VINP on 2018-05-17. These data include depth and species. These data were collected by Peter J. Edmunds of California State University Northridge as part of the "LTREB Long-term coral reef community dynamics in St. John, USVI: 1987-2019 (St. John LTREB)" and "RUI-LTREB Renewal: Three decades of coral reef community dynamics in St. John, USVI: 2014-2019 (RUI-LTREB)" projects. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2023-01-23.
