This data set is a result of the cooperative effort by the NOAA Fisheries SEFSC and University of Miami RSMAS in an on-going effort to monitor and assess coral reef fish populations in the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary. In 2009, The National Park Service NPS and Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commision FFWCC partnered with NOAA and RSMAS. The project's Principal Investigator is Dr. James Bohnsack. Funding for the project was from the NOAA's Coral Reef Conservation Program - Asses and Monitor Coral Reef MPAs (CRCP ID # 482)
