Benthic percent cover derived from image analysis for selected locations in the Pacific Ocean
The data products described herein are part of the NOAA Coral Reef Conservation Program (CRCP) funded projects aimed at documenting the status and trends for benthic cover and composition on coral reef ecosystems across the U.S. Pacific States and Territo...
Guam Long-term Coral Reef Monitoring Program Benthic Percent Cover Derived from Image Analysis since 2010
The Government of Guam's Long-term Coral Reef Monitoring Program, coordinated through the Guam Coastal Management Program until October 2013 and now coordinated through the University of Guam Marine Laboratory, involves the collection of data for a suite ...
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...
Support for Macroalgal Ecology and Taxonomic Assessment for Coral Reef Assessment and Monitoring Program Sites, 2000-2002 for the Hawaiian Islands (NODC Accession 0000884)
The role that marine algae play in a coral reef system is often overlooked because of lack of knowledge that they are the primary producers in the system. The coral reef ecosystem in Hawaii contains about ten times more algal species than coral species, s...
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...
2000 Hawaii State-wide and 2000-2002 Kaneohe Bay, Oahu Marine Alien and/or Invasive Algae Species Surveys (NODC Accession 0001007)
Baseline surveys were conducted at numerous sites around each island, including those identified as "hotspots" by the Department of Aquatic Resources, around the islands of Hawaii, Maui, Molokai, Oahu and Kauai. A total of 72 sites with 13 in Kaneohe Bay,...
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...
Support for Macroalgal Ecology and Taxonomic Assessment for Coral Reef Assessment and Monitoring Program Sites, 2000-2003 in the Hawaiian Islands (NODC Accession 0001481)
The role that marine algae play in a coral reef system is often overlooked because of lack of knowledge that they are the primary producers in the system. The coral reef ecosystem in Hawaii contains about ten times more algal species than coral species, s...
Sediment Monitoring Adjacent to the Barbers Point
Ocean Outfall, Oahu, Hawaii, 1986-2002 (NODC Accession 0000819)
Sediment in the vicinity of the Barbers Point (Honouliuli) ocean
outfall were sampled from 1986-2002. To assess the environmental quality,
sediment grain size and sediment chemistry were measured.
Stations were located both within and on the boundary of...
Hawaii Coral Reef Assessment and Monitoring Program (CRAMP):
Benthic Data from Rapid Assessment Transects 2001-2004 (NODC Accession 0002464)
This dataset consists of CRAMP Rapid Assessment Transect surveys taken in
2001-2004 and includes quantitative estimates of substrate type and species.
The types and coverages were derived objectively from photographic images
using PhotoGrid, a software pa...
