| Purpose | Final recovery of two 21-bottle time-series sediment traps. Recovery of ~14 suspended sediment tube traps. Collection of 2 1.75-inch ID push cores. Downloading of salinity and turbidity data. Perform a post-recovery turbidity calibration bucket test. Clean, dismantle, and ship time-series trap tripods back to Woods Hole. Ship all other gear back to Woods Hole. | ||||||||

| Benthic habitats of the coral reef ecosystem on the south shore of Moloka'i | Bottom platform | A benthic habitat polygon coverage has been created of the coral reef ecosystem on the south shore of Moloka'i. Polygons were hand-digitized from visual interpretation of aerial photography and SHOALS bathymetry data. We also utilized in situ knowledge from towed instruments, underwater photography and videography, and diver and snorkeler observations. The polygons have attributes for Main Structure/Substrate, Dominant Structure/Substrate, Major Biological Cover, Percent of Major Biological Cover, Reef Zone, and Unique ID, and measurements of acreage, area (m2) and perimeter (m) of each polygon. | Susan Cochran |
