Abstract
This dataset represents oyster density measurements of restored reef edge/interior in Quonochontaug Pond, Rhode Island, USA determined by scuba divers in May of 2019. Reef relief and quadrat relief were calculated by subtracting water depth at each quadrat (quadrat relief) or the highest point on the reef (reef relief) from water depth on the adjacent unstructured bottom. 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/881536
