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: | Peyssonnelia abundance along the south shore of St. John, US Virgin Islands from surveys during 2015 (NCEI Accession 0291327) |
| Abstract: | This dataset contains data collected from 2015-01-01 to 2015-12-31. These data include depth. The instruments used to collect these data include Camera. These data were collected by Peter J. Edmunds of California State University Northridge and Dr Lorenzo Bramanti of Université Pierre et Marie Curie (Paris 6) as part of the "RUI-LTREB Renewal: Three decades of coral reef community dynamics in St. John, USVI: 2014-2019 (RUI-LTREB)" project. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2021-05-24. The following is the text of the dataset description provided by BCO-DMO: Peyssonnelia abundance along the south shore of St. John, US Virgin Islands from surveys during 2015 Dataset Description: The abundance of the peyssonnelid algal crust was measured using 50 m video transects (recorded with a GoPro Hero 3) at 3, 5, and 7 m depth at five sites, haphazardly selected between Cabritte Horn and White Point on the south shore of St. John. Still images (n = 20 transect-1, each ~ 250 cm2) were randomly extracted and analyzed for percentage cover of peyssonnelids using a grid of 25 squares that were scored for dominance by this alga (i.e., 4% resolution). |
