The data described here result from benthic photo-quadrat surveys conducted along transects at climate stations and permanent sites identified by the Ocean and Climate Change team across the Hawaiian archipelago since 2013 . Benthic habitat imagery were quantitatively analyzed using Coral Point Count with Excel extensions (CPCe; Kohler and Gill, 2006) software from 2010-2014 and a web-based annotation tool called CoralNet (Beijbom et al. 2016) from 2015 to present. In general, images are analyzed to produce three functional group levels of benthic cover: Tier 1 (e.g., hard coral, soft coral, macroalgae, turf algae, etc.), Tier 2 (e.g., Hard Coral = massive, branching, foliose, encrusting, etc.; Macroalgae = upright macroalgae, encrusting macroalgae, bluegreen macroalgae, and Halimeda, etc.), and Tier 3 (e.g., Hard Coral = Astreopora sp, Favia sp, Pocillopora, etc.; Macroalgae = Caulerpa sp, Dictyosphaeria sp, Padina sp, etc.). Climate stations are 3-4 sites per island that were selected in a stratified random fashion to be roughly equally spaced around the island, along the 15 m contour, on hard bottom, and at least 1 km away from a river mouth or embayment. Once selected we assess multiple features of the coral reef environment including in-situ temperature (STR), seawater carbonate, net carbonate accretion (CAU), and bioerosion (BMU). In 2013 and 2016, cryptobiota diversity (ARMS) was also assessed. These data can be accessed online via the NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) Ocean Archive. The NOAA National Coral Reef Monitoring Program (NCRMP) details a long term approach to provide an ecosystem perspective via monitoring climate, fish, benthic, and socioeconomic variables in a consistent and integrated manner. The NCRMP is intended to coordinate various NOAA Coral Reef Conservation Program (CRCP) biological, physical, and human dimensions activities into a cohesive NOAA-wide effort. Through the implementation of the NCRMP, NOAA will be able to clearly and concisely communicate results of national-scale monitoring to national, state, and territorial policy makers, resource managers, and the public on a periodic basis.

This integrated approach will consolidate monitoring of coral reefs under a uniform method in the Pacific, Atlantic, Caribbean, and the Gulf of Mexico for the first time. NCRMP is funded by the CRCP and supported by NOAA Fisheries, NOAA National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science (NCCOS), and many other partners. The Coral Reef Ecosystem Program (CREP), now know as the Ecosystem Sciences Division (ESD), at NOAA Fisheries is leading biological monitoring in the U.S. Pacific Islands Region. The biological component of NCRMP in the Pacific provides a triennial ecological characterization at a broad spatial scale of general reef condition for reef fishes, corals and benthic habitat (i.e., fish species composition/density/size, benthic cover, and coral density/size/condition). Each year, CREP [ESD] scientists work closely with CRCP and local partners to collect biological data on fish populations and coral reef communities from strategically selected sites during Reef Assessment and Monitoring Program (RAMP) missions. Innovative analysis techniques are then used to develop products that give fellow scientists, managers, decision makers and the public a better understanding of a region’s resources and how they are changing over time. false eng false Data Table Data File Benthic_Cover 2021-07-30 publication Benthic Image analysis classification scheme 2021-07-30 publication CSV - Comma Separated Values (Text) CSV - Comma Separated Values (Text) CSV - Comma Separated Values (Text) CSV - Comma Separated Values (Text) NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information ncei.info@noaa.gov https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/contact WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link NCEI Contact Information Information for contacts at NCEI. information distributor https://accession.nodc.noaa.gov/0157720 WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link MV_BIA_CNET_ANALYSIS_DATA HAWAII 2013.csv Image analysis data derived from photoquadrat benthic images at NCRMP climate stations and permanent sites across the Hawaiian archipelago in 2013 by the NOAA Coral Reef Ecosystem Program (CREP), now know as the Ecosystem Sciences Division (ESD). download https://accession.nodc.noaa.gov/0164294 WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link MV_BIA_CNET_ANALYSIS_DATA HAWAII 2016.csv Image analysis data derived from photoquadrat benthic images at NCRMP climate stations and permanent sites across the Hawaiian archipelago in 2016 by the NOAA Coral Reef Ecosystem Program (CREP), now know as the Ecosystem Sciences Division (ESD). download https://accession.nodc.noaa.gov/0240338 WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link MHI_2019_CLIMATE_BENTHIC_COVER.csv Image analysis data derived from photoquadrat benthic images at NCRMP climate stations and permanent sites across the Main Hawaiian Islands in 2019 by the NOAA Ecosystem Sciences Division (ESD) download https://accession.nodc.noaa.gov/0240338 WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link NWHI_2019_CLIMATE_BENTHIC_COVER.csv Image analysis data derived from photoquadrat benthic images at NCRMP climate stations and permanent sites across the Northwest Hawaiian Islands in 2019 by the NOAA Ecosystem Sciences Division (ESD) download dataset Accuracy Data sets derived from image analysis are highly reliable within the stipulated taxonomic context. Each time a production run is performed for a region, a calibration exercise is conducted by all staff that will participate in that round of image analysis classification. Usually 100-150 photos are selected from the photos being processed as part of the production run series, or other region-relevant photo streams. Then, CPCE or CoralNet assigns 10 random points per photo. Each photo analyst is asked to classify the same set of points in each of the photos used as part of the calibration exercise. The goal of the calibration exercise is to assess inter-observer variability. Inter-observer variability rates are available upon request for each production run. Handheld GPS units were used to locate and mark site locations. Comparability Survey transects were appropriately marked to allow direct, site-level temporal comparisons. Completeness Measure Complete; photoquads were taken at all sites surveyed. The data set derived from the annotated images is as good as the images themselves; poor images with low contrast, inappropriate white balance, or out of focus may have been discarded. Therefore, total annotations for some sites may have differing number of points between sites (300 annotations are expected per site if there were 30 photographs and 10 point analyzed per photograph). Although the analysis process is statistically robust to allow for differing n (points) between sites, users should be aware of this limitation. Completeness Report Only shallow water (0 to 30 meter depth range) hard-bottom habitats are surveyed. Classification is completed to the functional group/genus level (Tier 3). The data set derived from the image analysis is as good as the images themselves; poor images with low contrast, inappropriate white balance, or out of focus may have to be discarded. Therefore, percent cover estimates for some sites may derive from differing number of points between sites. Although the analysis process is statistically robust to allow for differing n (points) between sites the users should be aware of this limitation. Conceptual Consistency Training modules and standard operating procedures have been developed and documented to ensure improved performance and consistent imagery analysis results produced by multiple analysts. Benthic photographs were collected during photoquadrat surveys conducted at permanent sites and climate stations in coral reef habitats by the PIFSC Ecosystem Sciences Division. The imagery was later analyzed using Coral Point Count with Excel Extentions (CPCe; 2014 and prior) or CoralNet (starting in 2015) to generate benthic community data. The benthic photoquadrat imagery that are collected as part of the Climate Station surveys are analyzed by using Coral Point Count with Excel extensions (CPCe; Kohler and Gill 2006) software through 2014 or by using the web-based annotation tool CoralNet (Beijbom et al. 2015) from 2015 to present. CPCe or CoralNet assigns 10 random points per photo and the benthic elements falling directly underneath each point is identified to three functional group levels: Tier 1 (e.g. hard coral, soft coral, macroalgae, turf algae, etc.), Tier 2 (e.g. Hard coral by morphology = massive, branching, foliose, encrusting, etc.; Macroalgae = upright macroalgae, encrusting macroalgae, bluegreen macroalgae, and Halimeda, etc.), and Tier 3 (e.g. Hard coral by genus and morphology; Macroalgae by genus or grouped genera). The detailed list of each functional group level or tier is included in the benthic image analysis classification scheme. Vargas-Angel, Bernardo (808)725-5423 bernardo.vargasangel@noaa.gov processor Raw survey data includes unique image name and individual point observations identified at three functional group levels of benthic cover with the corresponding physical data which reflect the description of the site. The physical data for all records includes the following: region, island, site, date (day, month, year), latitude (dd), longitude (dd), reef zone, habitat type, depth category, minimum depth and maximum depth.
