NCCOS Assessment: Fish tracking data from East End Marine Park in St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands from 2019-11-08 to 2022-09-27 (NCEI Accession 0290601)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: August 27, 2026 at 09:25 PM | Dataset Last Updated: April 16, 2024 at 12:00 AM
This dataset includes detections of fish tagged with Vemco/Innovasea acoustic transmitters in East End Marine Park (EEMP), St. Croix, US Virgin Islands from 2019 through 2022. Detection data were obtained from an array of underwater dataloggers/receivers deployed across the study area which recorded transmissions from tagged fish. Data include identifying information for each fish tag/transmitter, species tagged, timestamp of detection, and positional information for the receiver that detected the tag.
