Underwater cultural heritage (UCH) sites become important habitats for sessile invertebrates, but the materials they are made from can impact the composition of species living on them. We collected and analyzed images from three sites in Palau (two shipwrecks and one plane wreck from WWII) along with directly adjacent (1 – 5 m away) naturally-occurring coral reefs. We collected images of the sessile invertebrate fauna at each site using a Nikon D850 camera with a wide-angle lens, a GoPro Hero 7 with a wide-angle lens, and two Olympus TG-6 cameras. Wide-angle photography was used to record adult corals or other sessile invertebrates (≤ 5 cm diameter) in quadrats (0.34 ± 0.01 m2, mean ± SE). Olympus cameras were used for macro photography of young coral recruits (< 5 cm diameter), with each recruit being photographed individually to enable identification. Images were used to visually identify and count sessile invertebrates living on each wreck and the adjacent coral reefs. Coral species were identified to the genus level by comparison to published guides. Other sessile invertebrate species were identified to broad taxonomic categories (e.g., wire coral, sponge, tube worm).\n\ncdm_data_type = Other\nVARIABLES:\nPhoto_Name (unitless)\nDate (unitless)\nSite (unitless)\nlatitude (degrees_north)\nlongitude (Long, degrees_east)\nCategory (unitless)\nTransect (unitless)\ndepth (Depth_m, m)\nAcanthastrea (unitless)\nAcropora (unitless)\nCantharellus (unitless)\nCoelastrea (unitless)\nCtenactis (unitless)\nCycloseris (unitless)\n...

Major tropical storms are destructive phenomena with large effects on the community dynamics of multiple biomes. On coral reefs, their impacts have been described for decades, leading to the expectation that future storms should have effects similar to those recorded in the past. This expectation relies on the assumption that storm intensities will remain unchanged, and the impacted coral reef communities are similar to those of the recent past; neither assumption is correct. These data support a study quantifying the effects of two category five hurricanes on the reefs of St. John, US Virgin Islands, where 31 y of time-series analyses reveal chronic coral mortality, increasing macroalgal abundance, and five major hurricanes that caused acute coral mortality. Contextualized by these trends, the effects of the most recent storms, Hurricanes Irma and Maria (September 2017), on coral cover were modest. While mean absolute coral cover declined 1\\u20134% depending on site, these effects were not statistically discernable. Following decades of increasing abundance of macroalgae, this functional group responded to the recent hurricanes with large increases in abundance on both absolute and relative scales. Decades of chronic mortality have changed the coral assemblages of St. John to create degraded communities that are resistant to severe storms.\n\ncdm_data_type = Other\nVARIABLES:\nSite (unitless)\nYear (unitless)\nSlide (unitless)\nTiming (unitless)\nOrbicella_annularis (percent)\nAgaricia (percent)\nDendrogyra (percent)\nDichocoenia (percent)\nDiploria_labrynthiformes (percent)\nD_strigosa (percent)\nEusmilia_fastigiata (percent)\nFavia_fragum (percent)\n...
