    "descript": "Pompano Ridge is a coral reef located on the southeast Florida nearshore ridge complex, ~600 meters (m) off the coast of northern Broward County in southeast Florida (26\u00b013\u0092 North, 80\u00b05\u0092 West). This data release compiles data collected on the late Holocene and living coral composition of Pompano Ridge. The data are described in detail in Modys and others (2024). The samples were collected under Scientific Activity Licenses (SAL) from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (SAL-18-1650(A)-SRP) and with permission from Broward County Environmental Protection & Growth Management.",
