    • Benthic percent cover derived from photoquadrat images taken along fixed transect at Laupahoehoe, Hawaii Island, September 2024 (NCEI Accession 0304209)

    Metadata Updated: November 1, 2025

    The State of Hawaii DLNR (Department of Land and Natural Resources) DAR (Division of Aquatic Resources) marine monitoring team conducted surveys for benthic monitoring at one deep (10 meter) and one shallow (3 meter) site at Laupahoehoe, Hawaii Island. Deep and shallow sites were surveyed through benthic photo quad image collection along 10 fixed transects. These permanent monitoring sites were established as part of the Coral Reef Assessment and Monitoring Program (CRAMP). Sites were paired to represent the shallow and deep habitat at each location. Twenty-five random points were overlaid on each image in CoralNet (coralnet.ucsd.edu) and were annotated by staff members to obtain data for percent cover of benthic taxa.
