Comparison of methods used to estimate coral cover in the Hawaiian Islands [PDF]
PeerJ, 2015 Nine coral survey methods were compared at ten sites in various reef habitats with different levels of coral cover in Kāne‘ohe Bay, O’ahu, Hawaiʻi. Mean estimated coverage at the different sites ranged from less than 10% cover to greater than 90% cover ...
