Photoquadrats were established to quantify the percent of the benthic substrate occupied by coral and algal species, through use of Coral Point Count with Excel Extensions. Rugosity along each transect was also calculated. The transects were 15 m in length with photoquadrats at each meter mark. Each set of transects at each site consists of 10 15-m long transects running ~parallel to the shore, with ends of all transects aligned, and transects spaced 10 m apart along the vertical profile of the reef from the reef flat to the sandy interface at a depth of ~25 m. Quantified data provided in Excel spreadsheets. Original JPEG images from the photoquadrats are given as well, for future users to have the opportunity to apply other methods of quantifying the benthos. To characterize the structure and composition of benthic microhabitat at 2 sites along the Kona Coast. completed historicalArchive NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information ncei.info@noaa.gov https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/contact HTTPS NCEI Contact Information Information for contacts at NCEI. information pointOfContact asNeeded https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/metadata/landing-page/bin/gfx?id=gov.noaa.nodc:0070530 Preview graphic PNG 0070530 NCEI ACCESSION NUMBER 2011-02-03 publication BENTHIC SPECIES BENTHIC SPECIES - TAXA IDENTITIES CORAL CORAL - BLEACHING CORAL - CENSUS CORAL - SPECIES IDENTIFICATION INVERTEBRATE SPECIES MACROALGAE SPECIES IDENTIFICATION Video Transect Images theme NODC DATA TYPES THESAURUS camera chain instrument NODC INSTRUMENT TYPES THESAURUS benthic survey survey - biological survey - coral reef survey - swimmer/diver visual observation theme NODC OBSERVATION TYPES THESAURUS SWIMMER/DIVER platform NODC PLATFORM NAMES THESAURUS Vantuna Research Group dataCentre NODC COLLECTING INSTITUTION NAMES THESAURUS Vantuna Research Group dataCentre NODC SUBMITTING INSTITUTION NAMES THESAURUS HAWAII CORAL REEF INITIATIVE RESEARCH PROGRAM (HCRI) project NODC PROJECT NAMES THESAURUS Coastal Waters of Hawaii North Pacific Ocean place NODC SEA AREA NAMES THESAURUS oceanography theme WMO_CategoryCode 2012-09-15 publication DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NODC > National Oceanographic Data Center, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce dataCentre Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Data Center Keywords 2026 revision 24 Earth Science Data and Information System, Earth Science Projects Division, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Greenbelt MD https://forum.earthdata.nasa.gov/app.php/tag/GCMD%2BKeywords HTTPS GCMD Keyword Forum Page Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2025.
