These data were compiled from permit reports for the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary and the State of Florida Special Activity License and from coral nursery operators. These data were compiled from individual coral nurseries to provide a consolidated source of information about individual coral population enhancement activities. This compilation provides a useful overview for tracking threatened coral abundance and recovery efforts.
