Brittany Huntington and Margaret Miller (NMFS-SEFSC) This project was funded for two years by CRCP (FY13-14) and built upon one year of pilot work conducted in FY12 funded by NMFS-SEFSC and SERO as an NRC postdoctoral research fellowship (Huntington). The goals of the project were to characterize natural, robust Acropora cervicornis populations in different regions, including various aspects of A. cervicornis condition, function (growth and tissue condition), and resident fish assemblages. To this end, we conducted surveys at sites in four regions (i.e., Dry Tortugas, Southeast Florida, Belize, USVI) designed to span the range of natural A. cervicornis density present each region. In addition, we conducted similar surveys within restored populations of at two sites in Puerto Rico with high density restored populations. Lastly, we undertook three hypothesis-driven studies in the Dry Tortugas region only, to investigate the potential for positive feedbacks between the sheltering reef fish community and high density stands of A. cervicornis. A macroagal bioassay was used to determine the relative bioavailability of nutrients in the water surrounding high density versus low density stands of A. cervicornis. Wild tissue collections of A. cervicornis occurred at these same sites to compare nutrient concentration and zooxanthellae density within colonies. To evaluate potential facilitative feedbacks in robust extant A. cervicornis thickets completed Huntington, Brittany (808)725-5438 1845 Wasp Blvd. Honolulu HI 96818 USA brittany.huntington@noaa.gov custodian asNeeded https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/archive/accession/0127933/1.1/about/0127933_map.jpg JPG DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NCEI > National Centers for Environmental Information, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NODC > National Oceanographic Data Center, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce DOC/NOAA/NMFS/SEFSC > Southeast Fisheries Science Center, National Marine Fisheries Service, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce dataCentre Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Data Center Keywords 17.0 EARTH SCIENCE > BIOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATION > PLANTS > MACROALGAE (SEAWEEDS) EARTH SCIENCE > BIOSPHERE > ECOSYSTEMS > MARINE ECOSYSTEMS > REEF > CORAL REEF EARTH SCIENCE > LAND SURFACE > GEOMORPHIC LANDFORMS/PROCESSES > COASTAL LANDFORMS > CORAL REEFS theme Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords 17.0 Acropora cervicornis theme World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS) OCEAN > ATLANTIC OCEAN > NORTH ATLANTIC OCEAN OCEAN > ATLANTIC OCEAN > NORTH ATLANTIC OCEAN > CARIBBEAN SEA OCEAN > ATLANTIC OCEAN > NORTH ATLANTIC OCEAN > GULF OF AMERICA place Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Location Keywords 20.8 VISUAL OBSERVATIONS > VISUAL OBSERVATIONS instrument Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Instrument Keywords 17.2 819 Determining patterns of staghorn coral recovery to establish targets for Caribbean reef restoration theme CRCP Project Numeric Data Sets > Biology theme CoRIS Discovery Thesaurus EARTH SCIENCE > Oceans > Marine Biology > Fish > Fish Census EARTH SCIENCE > Biosphere > Zoology > Corals EARTH SCIENCE > Biosphere > Zoology > Corals > Coral Growth EARTH SCIENCE > Biosphere > Zoology > Corals > Coral Nutrition EARTH SCIENCE > Biosphere > Zoology > Corals > Reef Monitoring and Assessment > Benthos Analysis > Transect monitoring theme CoRIS Theme Thesaurus 0127933 127933 theme NCEI ACCESSION NUMBER US DOC; NOAA; NMFS; Southeast Fisheries Science Center; Miami, FL Laboratory theme NODC COLLECTING INSTITUTION NAMES CORAL - COLONY SIZE CORAL FISH - CORAL REEF FISH CENSUS MACROALGAE theme NODC DATA TYPES in situ benthic biological survey - biological survey - coral reef survey - swimmer/diver visual observation theme NODC OBSERVATION TYPES CORAL REEF STUDIES Coral Reef Conservation Program (CRCP) theme NODC PROJECT NAMES US DOC; NOAA; NMFS; Southeast Fisheries Science Center; Miami, FL Laboratory theme NODC SUBMITTING INSTITUTION NAMES COUNTRY/TERRITORY > Belize > Belize > Glovers Reef (16N087W0001) COUNTRY/TERRITORY > United States of America > Florida > Dade County > Miami (25N080W0018) COUNTRY/TERRITORY > United States of America > Florida > Monroe County > Dry Tortugas > Pulaski Shoal (24N082W0003) COUNTRY/TERRITORY > United States of America > Puerto Rico > Ponce (17N066W0010) COUNTRY/TERRITORY > United States of America > U.
