Large-scale pesticide monitoring across Great Barrier Reef catchments – Paddock to Reef Integrated Monitoring, Modelling and Reporting Program

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2012
The transport and potential toxicity of pesticides in Queensland (QLD) catchments from agricultural areas is a key concern for the Great Barrier Reef (GBR). In 2009, a pesticide monitoring program was established as part of the Australian and QLD Governments' Reef Plan (2009).

A Paddock to reef monitoring and modelling framework for the Great Barrier Reef: Paddock and catchment component

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2012
Targets for improvements in water quality entering the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) have been set through the Reef Water Quality Protection Plan (Reef Plan). To measure and report on progress towards the targets set a program has been established that combines monitoring and modelling at paddock through to catchment and reef scales; the Paddock to Reef ...

Optimization of an energy harvesting buoy for coral reef monitoring

2013 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation, 2013
The sustainable management of coastal and offshore ecosystems, such as for example coral reef environments, requires an energy efficient collection of accurate data across various temporal and spatial scales. To suitably address the energy supply of marine sensors, in this paper a novel energy harvesting device is proposed, based on a Tubular Permanent

Video-monitored predation by Caribbean reef fishes on an array of mangrove and reef sponges

Marine Biology, 1996
Although predation by fishes is thought to structure benthic invertebrate communities on coral reefs, evidence to support this claim has been difficult to obtain. We deployed an array of eight sponge species on Conch Reef (16 m depth) off Key Largo, Florida, USA, and used a remote video-camera to record fish activity near the array continuously during ...

National Coral Reef Monitoring Program socioeconomic monitoring component

2016
This report outlines human dimensions information relevant to coral reef resources in American Samoa. The findings here are derived from a combination of data gathered through household surveys conducted in February 2014, and additional secondary sources of socioeconomic information for the jurisdiction.

Foraminifera as bioindicators in coral reef assessment and monitoring: the FORAM Index. Foraminifera in Reef Assessment and Monitoring.

Environmental monitoring and assessment, 2003
Coral reef communities are threatened worldwide. Resource managers urgently need indicators of the biological condition of reef environments that can relate data acquired through remote-sensing, water-quality and benthic-community monitoring to stress responses in reef organisms.

Inconsistencies in ocean temperature monitoring for coral reefs

2022
Coral reefs are extremely vulnerable to climate-driven warming of the ocean, which threatens their existence. Multiple sea surface temperature (SST) data sources are currently used to study and predict coral responses to rising temperatures. Understanding the differences between the different SST data sources applied to coral reefs may facilitate ...
