This map displays optical validation observation locations and percent coverage of scleractinian coral overlaid on bathymetry.
To display locations of optical validation data collected and percent coverage of scleractinian coral at Maro Reef.
Maro Reef, located at 25.4N, 170.6W, is the largest coral reef system in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands with 1,508 sq. km of reef habitat in depths less than 100 m. There is no emergent land except for a few large coral blocks that are awash at low tide.
