Title:
Saipan coral nursery fragment growth and parent colony fragmentation through the Saipan Coral Nursery Pilot Project (SCNPP) in the Northern Mariana Islands from 2019-06-06 to 2020-12-02 (NCEI Accession 0239041)
Abstract:
The data described here result from parent colony fragmentation collection and the monitoring of the fragment growth in the coral nursery through the Saipan Coral Nursery Pilot Project (SCNPP). Parent colony survey data includes genus and species identification, collection site information including: latitude, longitude, reef name, reef zone, depth, and tag number. Fragment growth data from the nursery includes: the nursery identifier, parent colony identifier, fragment code, genus and species name, presence/absence, and growth data. Parent colonies were collected from sites around Saipan in both Forereef and Lagoon reef types. Fragments were collected using an appropriate cutting tool from parent colonies of eight coral species including: Acropora. pulchra, A. globiceps, A. aspera, A. abrotanoides, and A. muricata. Wild abundance and nursery capacity determined the number of parent colonies collected for each species. Coral fragments were monitored for growth, survival and health status through measurement utilizing a three-dimensional survey design and visual surveys.
