NOAA's NOS/NCCOS/CCMA Biogeography Team, in collaboration with NOAA Ship Nancy Foster, federal, academic, and private sector partners conducted the 2016 Seafloor Mapping of the US Caribbean project. Several areas of interest were explored and surveyd duri...

This report and data set provides baseline data of the types of boats, the location of boats, the abundance of boats, and the activities of the people on the boats. The report is largely descriptive, including boat count and boat densities. Basic patterns...

This data collection contains geospatial data from spatial predictive models that were developed for 22 deep-sea coral and sponge (DSCS) taxa within the Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument (PMNM) from depths of 100–3,500 m. It includes raster datas...

This dataset contains singlebeam bathymetry data acquired during small-boat surveys conducted from October 20-26, 2012 and June 4-27, 2013 in Timor-Leste by the NOAA Coral Reef Ecosystem Program (CREP). Data was acquired with a HydroLite-TM Echosounder Ki...

The benthic cover data described here result from benthic photo-quadrat surveys conducted by the NOAA Coral Reef Ecosystem Program (CREP) in hard bottom shallow water (< 15 m) habitats in Timor-Leste during reef fish surveys surveys at 150 sites that were...

Bathymetric data derived from multispectral, high-resolution (2 m) satellite imagery from DigitalGlobe's WorldView-2 satellite to provide near complete coverage of nearshore terrain along the northern coastline of Timor-Leste, including the district of Oe...

Coral reef fish and benthos were surveyed at 150 shallow-water coral reef sites across the north coast of Timor-Leste and around Atauro Island in June 2013 during a 21-day survey mission. This project was conducted by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric ...

Photographs of the seafloor were collected during benthic photo-quadrat surveys conducted by the NOAA Coral Reef Ecosystem Program (CREP) in hard bottom shallow water (< 15 m) habitats in Timor-Leste. Photographs were collected along transects at fixed cl...

Benthic habitat classes were derived for nearshore waters (< 20 m depths) around Timor-Leste from DigitalGlobe WorldView-2 satellite imagery, acquired from Jan 26 2010 to Aug 10, 2014, by the NOAA Coral Reef Ecosystem Program (CREP). Habitat classes inclu...

Water temperature data were collected by the NOAA Coral Reef Ecosystem Program (CREP) using subsurface temperature recorders (STRs) deployed at fixed climate survey sites located on hard bottom shallow water (< 30 m) habitats in Timor-Leste. Climate sites...
