Abstract

This dataset has been deprecated. Please see https://www.bco-dmo.org/dataset/719161 for updated data. This dataset contains the results of the preliminary analysis of the optical descriptors calculated for each coral fragment of the species Orbicella faveolata used in the transplant experiment between three sites: Varadero (10°18'23.3"N, 75°35'08.0"W), Rosario (10°11'12.1"N, 75°44'43.0"W) and Abanico (10°18'5.80"N, 75°34'37.10"W). The tag number/color of each fragment, the date of data collec...
