Abstract
As part of reef-composition surveys of Palau, Yap, and the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM), the extension rates and density of coral species were collected from Prachett et al. (2015), meta-analysis of scientific literature, and personal observations to assist with quantifying the production of reef carbonate. For a complete list of measurements, refer to the full dataset description in the supplemental file 'Dataset_description.pdf'. The most current version of this dataset is available at: https://www.bco-dmo.org/dataset/736007
