Abstract:
"The coral distribution data for the region could be expanded by combining the observed data from this project with historical observer data and records from research trawl and biodiversity surveys. While a higher grouping of coral codes provides an understanding of the protected coral groups, the value of identifying the corals to the lowest taxonomic level is paramount to understanding impacts on the regions biodiversity and can provides a more robust dataset to predict spatial distribution"--Executive summary.
