Growth metrics and bleaching indicators of coral and sediment-influenced water quality parameters - Data set

Published by U.S. EPA Office of Research and Development (ORD) | U.S. Environmental Protection Agency | Catalog Last Checked: August 03, 2026 at 12:51 AM | Dataset Last Updated: April 10, 2024
This data set includes metrics of growth pertaining to Atlantic corals (Montastraea cavernosa and Stephanocoenia intersepta) exposed to fine-grained, sediment. Data also include bleaching indicators and measurements of sediment-influenced water quality. This dataset is associated with the following publication: Hankins, C., D. White, K. Bahr, Y. Jones, A. Glahn, W. Lehmann, and B. Fisher. Effects of Dredging Induced Resuspension of Fine-Grain Sediment on Two Scleractinian Corals, Montastraea cavernosa and Stephanocoenia intersepta. Journal of Coastal Zone Management. Walsh Medical Media, London, UK, 27(6): 1000650, (2025).
