Abstract:
This data summary report presents quantitative data for human, biological and physical variables. Data are summarized at the island and within-island scale (‘georegions’) for the priority areas of the Pacific and at the habitat scale (‘strata’) for the priority areas of the Atlantic/Caribbean. Georegion (Pacific) and habitat strata (Atlantic/Caribbean) represent the highest spatial resolution that summary data (often averages) can be reported at, given the stratified-random sampling design. This US-wide data summary report is the first developed since the formal implementation of the NCRMP in 2013. The primary audience for this data summary report and the publically available summary data is the scientific and management community. Greater than 95% of the data presented in this report was collected between 2015 and 2017.
