National Coral Reef Monitoring Program: Assessment of coral reef fish communities in the Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary

This collection contains data on species composition, density, size, abundance and derived metrics (e.g., species richness, diversity) gathered from fish surveys at Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary (FGBNMS) in the Gulf of Mexico as part of the ongoing National Coral Reef Monitoring Program (NCRMP). Data provided in this collection were gathered within FGBNMS as part of NOAA National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science (NCCOS)-led missions in collaboration with partners at NOAA National Ocean Service (NOS) Office of National Marine Sanctuaries FGBNMS, NOAA National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) Southeast Fisheries Science Center and Texas A&M. Data in this collection gathered in 2013 and 2015 were collected using the Belt Transect method. After 2015 data were collected using the stationary point count method.
