Pacific Island Network Benthic Marine and Marine Fish Monitoring Dataset 2006 - 2022

Metadata Updated: May 18, 2025

The Benthic Marine Communities Protocol is implemented in four parks in the Pacific and addresses two monitoring questions: 1) what are the changes over time in the composition (e.g., species or assemblage) and physical structure (rugosity) of the coral reef benthos? And 2) what are the changes over time in settlement, growth, survival, and health of targe coral assemblages, species, or individuals? The Marine Fish Monitoring Protocol is conducted in the same parks and sampling ___location sites, and addresses one monitoring question: What are the long-term trends in the numerical density, biomass, and size of reef fishes? Sampling ___location sites were randomly selected on hard substrata in an isobath between the 10- and 20-meter depths. This data package contains data collected for these two protocols.
