Abstract
This study was carried out on shallow reefs along the south coast of St. John, which have been monitored since 1987, and studied since the 1950s. These aspects of community structure were studied at 5–6 sites at 5–9-m depth between Cabritte Horn and White Point Coral. This data captures mortality and growth in St. John, US Virgin Islands from 2006-2016.
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/750710
