ResourceDevelop and test innovative solutions for assessing reef communities and benthic processes using Structure from Motion.
The primary goal of this project is to assess how well photogrammetry (also known as Structure-from-Motion) can be used to improve our understanding of coral reef demographics and vital rates from colony to habitat-scale. This project builds out the innov...
ResourceNear-real-time in situ sea temperature monitoring to improve Coral Reef Watch predictions and support Mission: Iconic Reefs
The project involves the installment of accurate and reliable in situ temperature buoys at each of the Mission:Iconic Reef sites to allow monitoring of bleaching heat stress in near real time at a spatial scale that is needed to support restoration activi...
ResourceScaling up coral reef science through Photogrammetry and Artificial Intelligence
The primary goal of this project is to continue assessing how well photogrammetry (also known as Structure-from-Motion or SfM) can be used to improve our understanding of coral reef demographics and vital rates from colony to habitat-scale across the US P...
ResourceImplementation of a Demonstration Site in the Puerto Rico HFA with Comprehensive Coral Reef Restoration at Palomino Island
This project will expand coral restoration at an important coral reef site in Puerto Rico that has been degraded by global and local stressors, but where initial work has demonstrated potential for successful restoration. The coral reefs at Palomino Islan...
