Purpose: As part of an integrated study to assess projected impacts of land-use and climate change on nearshore habitat conditions and coral health, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center (PCMSC) initiated an investigation of nearshore water properties and coral health indicators along the west Hawaii Island coast. The project and data generated provide fundamental baseline data to track change and important boundary condition data to interpret characteristics of coral health related to water quality along a gradient in exposure to urban impacts and submarine groundwater discharge Supplemental_Information: Additional information about the field activities from which these data were derived is available online at: https://cmgds.marine.usgs.gov/fan_info.php?fan=K110BI https://cmgds.marine.usgs.gov/fan_info.php?fan=K210BI https://cmgds.marine.usgs.gov/fan_info.php?fan=B0611BI Any use of trade, product, or firm names is for descriptive purposes only and does not imply endorsement by the U.S. Government.

Lineage: Process_Step: Process_Description: Using Coral Point Count (CPCe; Kohler and Gill, 2006) software, forty-five computer generated random points were placed over each subset digital photo image, the coral species or other benthic type (bare rock, sand, turf algae, macroalgae, coralline crust) located under each point was identified, and the percent of each cover type was calculated. Results from photo-analyses along each transect are summarized and presented here in CSV format.
