Title: National Coral Reef Monitoring Program: Carbonate Budget data of Bird Key Reef in the Dry Tortugas from 2015-09-01 to 2015-09-05 (NCEI Accession 0159176)
Abstract: This data set includes census based carbonate budget data that was collected in coral reef habitats located within the Dry Tortugas National Park (DTNP). Surveys (based on Perry et al 2012) were collected over one week at Bird Key Reef in the Dry Tortugas. Six transect surveys (10m each) were conducted to quantify benthic cover, macrobioerosion, and microbioerosion. Ten parrotfish surveys were also conducted to account for parrotfish erosion rates. This carbonate budget data along with other sea water chemistry data collected were used to establish a Class III monitoring site in the DTNP region.
