Abstract
Percent cover of Peyssonnelid Algal Crusts was measured at two sites and depths in Great Lameshur Bay, St. John, USVI in July and August 2019. These sites (Cabritte Horn and Tektite) were selected because the abundance of PAC has been measured in these locations since 2015. Peyssonnelid Algal Crust was surveyed in quadrats placed at random positions along transects positioned haphazardly along the 3 meter and 9 meter isobaths.
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/836071
