Data & sources

• Site coordinates: Wikidata, CC0. Each site page links its Wikidata item. We don't list depths or entry details we haven't verified.
• Species records: GBIF.org occurrence API. We include only records licensed CC0 1.0 or CC BY 4.0; CC BY-NC records are excluded. Each site page cites its query and contributing datasets. Records reflect survey effort, much of it from REEF volunteer surveys, so they are not a sighting forecast.
• Taxonomy and common names: GBIF Backbone Taxonomy.
• Reef heat stress: NOAA Coral Reef Watch, 5 km Regional Virtual Stations (Florida Keys, Southeast Florida). Credit: NOAA Coral Reef Watch. NOAA CRW (2018, updated daily).

We don't use FishBase or the Open-Meteo free tier because both are non-commercial. Spotted an error? Corrections welcome.
