| description:
|
Mean crustose coralline algae (CCA) cover for major habitat categories (divided by depth classes 0-30/30-60m depth) derived from the National Coral Reef Monitoring Program (NCRMP) St. Thomas/St. John sampling missions. These data were used to calculate resilience scores for the US Virgin Islands Coral Reef Resilience Prioritization project.
The US Virgin Islands (USVI) Coral Reef Resilience Prioritization project identified coral reefs and underwater habitats in the USVI that may have high resilience properties and potential to withstand current and forecasted climate change conditions, such as thermal stress, increased wave action, and coral disease outbreaks.
