Abstract

A passive acoustic recorder was deployed at various coral reefs in St. John, U.S. Virgin Islands between 2016-03-28 and 2017-07-11. This dataset contains average sound pressure level, low frequency sound pressure level (50 - 1500 Hz), high frequency sound pressure level (2 kHz - 20 kHz) and peak frequency of files at each site, sorted by files with and without boat noise.
