    HOBO In Situ temperatures La Parguera 2017-2019

    This in situ temperature data was collected from HOBO pendent loggers at Cayo Mario and Cayo Enrique, La Parguera, Puerto Rico, from 06/30/2017 to 06/20/2019. The loggers were placed at different depths around the reefs, and the goal was to compare the in situ temperature to satellite SST to see how representative the satellite SST was of the temperature at the depth of the corals.

  • Crown-of-thorns starfish movement and feeding electivity data

    In situ time-lapse photography was used to characterise movement and feeding preferences of the Pacific crown-of-thorns starfish (Acanthaster cf. solaris) in the northern and southern Great Barrier Reef in 2015. This record describes the data accompanying the publication (in press): Homing behaviour by destructive crown-of-thorns starfish is triggered by local availability of coral prey. Data files are: 1) CoTS movement and behavioural observations 2) CoTS individual movement tracks (per image) from time-lapse photography 3) feeding electivity on coral species by CoTS from time-lapse photography
