Intertidal Species Inventory and Quantitative Data Collected on Oahu and Maui during 2001-2005 (NODC Accession 0002447)
Two types of data sets generated by our project: species inventories and quantitative counts of key organisms. The species inventories are a
compilation of data collected by Chela Zabin of the Department of Zoology of the University of Hawaii in 2001 and ...
Macro-algae Biomass and Cover from Nearshore Regions of the Natatorium War Memorial, Waikiki, Oahu, Hawaii 1966-2005 (NODC Accession 0040082)
The Department of Zoology, University of Hawaii at Manoa, incorporated
surveys of macro-algae as part of the Zoology 439L "Laboratory in Ecology"
during annual field experiments 1970-2005. Macro-algae species were
identified and biomass and percent subst...
Sediment Dwelling Benthos as Indicator Species for Pollution Monitoring of Mamala Bay, Oahu, Hawaii, 1993-1994 (NODC Accession 9900121)
A multifaceted study of the sediment dwelling benthos was conducted in Mamala
Bay to identify suitable species as indicators of sewage enrichment. There are
five components to this study - 1) reproduction and life histories of potential
indicator species...
Physical and Biological Properties at 10 M Depth Offshore of the Ala Wai Canal, Oahu, Hawaii, 1993-1994 (NODC Accession 9900120)
This study examined temporal and spatial variability in shallow, soft bottom
macrofauna communities in Mamala Bay, Oahu, Hawaii. Both short term (weekly)
and long term (monthly) temporal changes were examined. Specifically, there were
three objectives of...
Growth of Tripneustes Gratilla in Kaneohe Bay, Oahu, Hawaii 2003, (NODC Accession 0001459)
As part of a study of the possibility of using the urchin T. gratilla to
control the growth of macroscopic algae on shallow reefs in Kaneohe Bay,
we examined the growth rate of this urchin. We measured growth of tagged
(PIT tagged) urchins at both sites ...
The relationship between coral reef health, alien algae, and fish biomass at sites on Oahu and the Big Island, Hawaii, during 2004-2005 (NODC Accession 0002619)
Data in this set come from two studies: "Ability of protected reefs to resist alien algae" and
"How many fish does it take to keep the alien algae out?" Both are authored by Ms. Danielle Jayewardene and
Dr. Charles Birkeland of University of Hawaii Manoa...
Feeding biology of the introduced fish roi, and its impact on Hawaiian reef fishes, January 2004 and January 2005, (NODC Accession 0002172)
Feeding biology of the introduced fish roi (Cephalopholis argus), and its impact on Hawaiian reef fishes and fisheries between January 2004 and January 2005. Roi were collected from 27 sites on Oahu and the Kona coast of the Island of Hawaii to study vari...
Grain Size Distribution and Fate of Transplanted Corals at Kawaihae, Hawaii: Field work of 1996-1997 (NODC Accession 0001141)
A harbor expansion was planned in the early 1990s for Kawaihae, Hawaii on the northwest shore of the Big Island. To offset the habitat loss, select corals were transplanted. This study looked at the effects of sedimentation on the transplanted and non-tra...
2001 Abundance Data Acquired in Support of Invasive Species Distribution Studies at 10 Macroalgal Ecology and Taxonomic Assessment Sites in Hawaii (NODC Accession 0000879)
Abundance data represent estimates of percent cover of species type (coral or algal) in 10 randomly placed quadrats along two 50 meter transect lines of each site. Data are available for 10 sites from Oahu to the Island of Hawaii taken in 2001 in support...
Hawaii Coral Reef Assessment and Monitoring Program (CRAMP): Benthic Data from 1999-2001 (NODC Accession 0000969)
This dataset consists of CRAMP surveys taken in 1999-2001 and includes quantitative estimates of substrate type, species type, and percent coverage. Fish data are included in a separate submission. The types and coverages were derived objectively from ph...
