Radiometric Ages and Descriptive Data for Late Holocene Acropora spp. Corals From Dry Tortugas National Park

This data release compiles radiometric data, photographs, and descriptive collection information (location, elevation, etc.) for late Holocene sub-fossil Acropora palmata and A. cervicornis coral samples collected from the coral reefs of Dry Tortugas National Park, Florida (DRTO) from 2015 to 2023. The samples were collected under scientific research permits from the U.S. National Park Service and all samples are currently recorded in the U.S. Geological Survey St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center’s (USGS SPCMSC) Geologic Core and Sample Database (Williams and others, 2013) and archived at the center’s Core Archive.
