Structural complexity is known to be an important component in coral reef ecosystems. Ecosystem relationships that correlate with structural complexity include reef fish density and biomass, live and branching coral cover, urchin abundance and algal cover...

This dataset contains the nutrient results for an experiment that assessed the effects of elevated NH4 on corals disease susceptibility. Eleven Acropora cervicornis genotypes were selected to conduct a full factorial tank. Replicate coral fragments (n=24 ...

The benthic complexity and urchin abundance monitoring effort provides baselines for tracking these variables at NCRMP climate stations. Climate stations are 3-4 sites per island that were selected in a stratified random fashion to be roughly equally spac...
