Parameters monitored
Benthic covers: Living and non-living substrata Reef fishes: Reefcheck and local indicators. Macro-invertebrates: Reefcheck indicators. Impacts: Physical indicators (dynamite, anchoring,
coral bleaching, COTS, Drupella snails).
Change in condition of coral reefs between time
Decline in hard coral cover from 1994 to 2012
Overall interval decline in hard coral cover
between periods of time
Estimation of changes in reef conditions
between 1994 and 2012
Impacts to coral reefs
Overfishing Destructive fishing Sedimentation and pollution Aquaculture development Tourism development Outbreak of predators (COTS, snails) Bleaching & red tides
