Sediment Processes on the Coral Reefs of Kahoolawe: A Rapid Field Assessment in 1993 (NODC Accession 0000883)
The nearshore coral ecosystems of Kahoolawe were rapidly assessed in 1993. Surveys were made of the coral coverage, fish communities, and sediment types from 19 locations. This data has been published in a technical report (Jokiel et. al,1995) and a PhD D...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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 ...
Hawaii Coral Reef Assessment and Monitoring Program (CRAMP):
Fish Data from 2000 (NODC Accession 0000757)
This dataset consists of CRAMP surveys taken in 2000 and includes
quantitative estimates of fish species richness, abundance, and biomass.
There are 32 survey sites, with most of these having both a shallow and
deep transect. These sites are located on K...
Coral Species, Colony Sizes, and Percent Coverage Based on Photoquadrat Images from the Hawaii Coral Reef Assessment and Monitoring Program: 2000 - 2002, (NODC Accession 0002312)
Fixed photoquadrats are used to examine trends of individual organisms with regards to growth,
recruitment and mortality. Five haphazardly selected photoquadrats at each depth contour were established with 4
pins at each corner to ensure accurate repositi...
