| Octocoral colony heights measured during transect surveys at six sites on the south shore of St. John, US Virgin Islands during July and August of 2024 | From 0m to 9m. 1x1m quadrats were positioned randomly along the 10 m transect. The values refer to the position of the "shoreward" edge of the quadrat. Thus "0" refers to the quadrat placed between the 0 and 1 meter marks
