Abstract:
"The main objectives of this project were: 1) to identify and quantify associations between nutrient load and coral health and disease on Guam reef flats, and 2) to monitor for improvements in coral health over time, as a result of the extension of the offshore outfalls. This project serves as a baseline assessment of land-based sewage impacts to coral health and disease and will hopefully provide information on the impacts of nutrient-loading on reef communities that will help guide future management practices on Guam."
