National Coral Reef Monitoring Program: Assessment of coral reef fish communities in the Florida Reef Tract. [indicate subset used]. NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information. Dataset. https://doi.org/10.7289/v52n50ks. Accessed [date] Coral reef fish survey data provided in this collection are from three (3) distinct regions along the Florida reef tract; 1) Dry Tortugas, 2) Florida Keys from Key West north to Miami and 3) Miami north to Martin County. These data are collected using a 2-stage, stratified random survey design. The stationary point count method (7.5m radius cylinder) is used to conduct fish surveys in Florida as part of the ongoing National Coral Reef Monitoring Program (NCRMP). This method collects and reports information on species composition, density, size structure, abundance and derived metrics (e.g., species richness, diversity). Lead agencies involved include the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Southeast Fisheries Science Center (NOAA Fisheries) and National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science (NCCOS). To provide continued reef fish and habitat monitoring in Florida's coral reef tract; to assess population and habitat trends, fish-habitat associations; and to assess ecosystem responses to natural events (e.g. hurricanes), management measures and anthropogenic impacts. To examine the effectiveness of marine reserves and other management strategies in the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary (FKNMS Sanctuary Preservation Areas SPAs, Tortugas Ecological Reserves TERs and Dry Tortugas National Park Research Natural Area RNA) as a part of the ongoing long-term monitoring effort of the National Coral Reef Monitoring Program (NCRMP). onGoing Blondeau, Jeremiah 305-361-4252 75 Virginia Beach Drive Miami FL 33149 USA jeremiah.blondeau@noaa.gov pointOfContact Blondeau, Jeremiah 305-361-4252 75 Virginia Beach Drive Miami FL 33149 USA jeremiah.blondeau@noaa.gov custodian asNeeded https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/archive/accession/0208321/1.1/about/0208321_map.jpg https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/archive/accession/0156445/3.3/about/0156445_map.jpg https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/archive/accession/0169400/2.2/about/0169400_map.jpg jpg https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/archive/accession/0253454/1.1/about/0253454_map.jpg DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NCEI > National Centers for Environmental Information, 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 DOC/NOAA/NOS/NMS > National Marine Sanctuaries, National Ocean Service, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce DOI/NPS > National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior U-MIAMI/RSMAS > Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science, University of Miami dataCentre Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Data Center Keywords 17.0 EARTH SCIENCE > BIOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATION EARTH SCIENCE > BIOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATION > ANIMALS/VERTEBRATES > FISH EARTH SCIENCE > BIOSPHERE > ECOSYSTEMS > MARINE ECOSYSTEMS > BENTHIC EARTH SCIENCE > SOLID EARTH > GEOMORPHIC LANDFORMS/PROCESSES > COASTAL LANDFORMS > CORAL REEFS theme Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords 17.0 OCEAN > ATLANTIC OCEAN > NORTH ATLANTIC OCEAN OCEAN > ATLANTIC OCEAN > NORTH ATLANTIC OCEAN > GULF OF AMERICA place Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Location Keywords 20.8 National Coral Reef Monitoring Plan (NCRMP) Implementation theme CRCP Project Numeric Data Sets > Biology Numeric Data Sets > Fish Census theme CoRIS Discovery Thesaurus EARTH SCIENCE > Biosphere > Zoology > Corals > Reef Monitoring and Assessment > Reef Fish Census EARTH SCIENCE > Biosphere > Zoology > Corals > Reef monitoring and assessment > Reef fish census > Belt transect EARTH SCIENCE > Oceans > Marine Biology > Fish EARTH SCIENCE > Oceans > Marine Biology > Fish > Fish Census theme CoRIS Theme Thesaurus 0156445 0169400 0208321 0253454 156445 169400 208321 253454 theme NCEI ACCESSION NUMBER Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission; Fish and Wildlife Research Institute Florida State Department of Environmental Protection Nova Southeastern University Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science US DOC; NOAA; NMFS; Southeast Fisheries Science Center US DOC; NOAA; NOS; Coral Reef Conservation Program US DOC; NOAA; NOS; National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science US DOC; NOAA; NOS; ONMS; Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary US DOI; National Park Service University of Miami theme NODC COLLECTING INSTITUTION NAMES THESAURUS BENTHIC COMMUNITIES BENTHIC SPECIES BIOLOGICAL DATA CORAL DEPTH - OBSERVATION FISH - CORAL REEF FISH CENSUS FISH SPECIES Fish HABITAT HABITAT - BENTHIC SPECIES IDENTIFICATION SPECIES IDENTIFICATION - COUNT theme NODC DATA TYPES THESAURUS benthic biological in situ survey - biological survey - coral reef survey - swimmer/diver theme NODC OBSERVATION TYPES THESAURUS CORAL REEF STUDIES Coral Reef Conservation Program (CRCP) National Coral Reef Monitoring Program (NCRMP) theme NODC PROJECT NAMES THESAURUS US DOC; NOAA; NMFS; Southeast Fisheries Science Center theme NODC SUBMITTING INSTITUTION NAMES THESAURUS COUNTRY/TERRITORY > United States of America > Florida > Florida Reef Tract (26N080W0007) OCEAN BASIN > Atlantic Ocean > North Atlantic Ocean > Florida Reef Tract (26N080W0007) place CoRIS Place Thesaurus Coastal Waters of Florida Florida Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary Gulf of Mexico North Atlantic Ocean place NODC SEA AREA NAMES THESAURUS swimmer/diver instrument NODC INSTRUMENT TYPES THESAURUS Diver Visual Survey theme 2014 2016 2018 2020 2021 temporal 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.
