Description
One, 25-m line transect was surveyed at 50-cm intervals as part of the Rapid Ecological Assessment conducted at 3 sites at Laysan Island in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands in September, 2004 from the NOAA vessel Hi'ialakai (HI04-01). Raw survey data included percent live coral cover. Following the line-interspect survey, a 6m-wide transect, placed along the previously laid 25-m line was examined for the prevalence of coral disease.
