Description
Okinotorishima Island, an isolated remote table reef island in the southernmost territory of Japan, provides an excellent site to examine the effect of only global stress, as there are no local human stresses present. Yamamoto et al. (2023) established 17 fixed quadrats (1×1 meter) on 9 knolls in the shallow lagoon of Okinotorishima Island, and observed coral population every May from 2006 to 2015. This dataset compiles data on coverage and number of colonies of Acropora and co-occurring corals published in Yamamoto et al. (2023). Yamamoto, H., Kawasaki, T., Tamura, K., Kanyama, T. Hosono, T., Fudo, M., Omori, M., Kayanne, H.: Decline in the Acropora population due to repeated moderate disturbances in Okinotorishima Island, Japan. Glaxea: Jour. Coral Reef Studies 25: 18-30 (2023). doi: 10.3755/galaxea.G26-3
Data Records
The data in this sampling event resource has been published as a Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A), which is a standardized format for sharing biodiversity data as a set of one or more data tables. The core data table contains 180 records.
2 extension data tables also exist. An extension record supplies extra information about a core record. The number of records in each extension data table is illustrated below.
This IPT archives the data and thus serves as the data repository. The data and resource metadata are available for download in the downloads section. The versions table lists other versions of the resource that have been made publicly available and allows tracking changes made to the resource over time.
