Description
Belt transects along 2 consecutively-placed, 25m transect lines were surveyed as part of Rapid Ecological Assessments conducted at 2 sites at Maui Island in the Main Hawaiian Islands in February, 2005 from the NOAA vessel Oscar Elton Sette (OES05-02). Raw survey data included species presence and relative abundance, colony counts and size classes, and visual estimation of percent cover. On each side of the transect lines, 1 m was included in the belt (for a total of 100m2 per site).
