Methods & Sampling

Dataset acquisition description

Methodology:
One SoundTrap ST300 passive acoustic recorder (Ocean Instruments NZ, Inc.) was deployed at each coral reef over the course of one year. Hydrophones were attached to rebar stakes 0.75 meters from the seafloor with the omnidirectional hydrophone facing the sea surface. Deployment dates and locations are listed here. See Dinh et al. 2018 for more details.

Problem report:
Hydrophones were offloaded and recharged between deployments. Gaps exist due to hydrophone malfunction. See Dinh et al. for more details.
