Global shallow water reef width patterns

Dataset encompasses the estimated reef width patterns of reef systems within the Caribbean and Indo-Pacific. Uploaded is the raw dataset, as well as the R script to create the final dataset for analysis. The raw dataset contains general location, exposure status, morphology classification, coordinates and shallow reef width patterns (shale_length).
