Surveys are conducted annually in Apr-May. A set number of colonies of each host is searched for snails. Each colony is measured and condition is noted (percent live tissue cover as well as incidence of disease or other conditions). All snails are enumerated, measured, and then returned to the colony on which they were found. These long term surveys are designed to document status and trends of A. palamta and C.abbreviata populations. completed annually Numeric Data Sets > Biology theme CoRIS Discovery Thesaurus EARTH SCIENCE > Biosphere > Ecological Dynamics > Predation > Coral Predation EARTH SCIENCE > Biosphere > Zoology > Corals > Reef Monitoring and Assessment theme CoRIS Theme Thesaurus COUNTRY/TERRITORY > United States of America > Florida > Dade County > Horseshoe Reef (25N080W0033) COUNTRY/TERRITORY > United States of America > Florida > Monroe County > Carysfort Reef (25N080W0013) COUNTRY/TERRITORY > United States of America > Florida > Monroe County > French Reef (25N080W0022) COUNTRY/TERRITORY > United States of America > Florida > Monroe County > Molasses Reef (25N080W0003) COUNTRY/TERRITORY > United States of America > Florida > Monroe County > Pickles Reef (24N080W0015) OCEAN BASIN > Atlantic Ocean > North Atlantic Ocean > Florida Reef Tract > Biscayne Bay > Horseshoe Reef (25N080W0033) OCEAN BASIN > Atlantic Ocean > North Atlantic Ocean > Florida Reef Tract > Upper Florida Keys > Carysfort Reef (25N080W0013) OCEAN BASIN > Atlantic Ocean > North Atlantic Ocean > Florida Reef Tract > Upper Florida Keys > French Reef (25N080W0022) OCEAN BASIN > Atlantic Ocean > North Atlantic Ocean > Florida Reef Tract > Upper Florida Keys > Molasses Reef (25N080W0003) OCEAN BASIN > Atlantic Ocean > North Atlantic Ocean > Florida Reef Tract > Upper Florida Keys > Pickles Reef (24N080W0015) place CoRIS Place Thesaurus corallivore monitoring predation snail theme Carysfort Reef French Reef Horseshoe Reef Little Grecian Reef Molasses Reef Pickles Reef place 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 2017-04-24 publication 8.5 Earth Science Data and Information System, Earth Science Projects Division, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) https://forum.earthdata.nasa.gov/app.php/tag/GCMD%2BKeywords GCMD Keyword Forum Page Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2025.
