Descrição

The long-term coral reef monitoring programme was established by the Institute of Marine Affairs to establish baseline surveys of coral reef health throughout Tobago. Four locations were established in 2010: Buccoo Reef (Outer and Western reef) and Culloden Reef (east and west). Angel Reef was added in 2014, BlackJack Hole was added in 2015 and Flying Reef was added in 2019. Castara, Plymouth, and Charlotteville were added to the monitoring sites in 2016. Sites are monitored for spatial and temporal changes along with associated environmental conditions to understand the reef's response to environmental and anthropogenic impacts.

Dados Sobre o Projeto

The long-term coral reef monitoring programme was established by the Institute of Marine Affairs to establish baseline surveys of coral reef health throughout Tobago. Four locations were established in 2010: Buccoo Reef (Outer and Western reef) and Culloden Reef (east and west). Angel Reef was added in 2014, BlackJack Hole was added in 2015 and Flying Reef was added in 2019. Castara, Plymouth, and Charlotteville were added to the monitoring sites in 2016. Sites are monitored for spatial and temporal changes along with associated environmental conditions to understand the reef's response to environmental and anthropogenic impacts.

Descrição da Área de Estudo The IMA has ten coral reef monitoring sites geographically spread across Tobago. Sites were broadly selected based on geographical representation across Tobago. Four sites were established in 2010 (Buccoo Western, Buccoo Outer, Culloden East and Culloden West) representing two sites within a marine protected area (Buccoo) and two sites outside (Culloden). Angel Reef was added in 2014, Blackjack Hole in 2015, and Castara, Plymouth, and Charlotteville in 2016. In 2019, the tenth permanent monitoring site was added at Flying Reef along the south coast. At each site, there are ten permanent transects except for Castara reef which has eight transects owing to the limited area. Sites are monitored annually between the months of May – July when the conditions are calmest. All sites are monitored for benthic cover. This dataset provides a list of benthic species identified through this process

Métodos de Amostragem

Along each transect, a 1 m2 quadrat was laid over the adjacent reef to the transect at each metre mark, and the photo was taken. A total of ten images per transect were collected per site, giving a total of 100 images per site except for Castara which has 80 images. Benthic percent cover is assessed using the coral point count method. From 2010 to 2018, Coral Point Count (CPC) Programme was used to apply the CPC method. From 2019 to 2021, CPC method was done on CoralNet Platform (coralnet.ucsd.edu). Images were uploaded to the IMA’s CoralNet database and the metadata was inputted. For the image analysis, a virtual quadrat was drawn over the photographed 1m2 quadrat. CoralNet / CPC randomly generated 60 points for each quadrat annotated. CoralNet uses a deep-learning annotation tool where the trained machine using image annotations for previous years automatically annotated points with greater than 75 % confidence. For confidences lower than 75 %, the machine gives taxonomic recommendations to guide the annotators in their identification process. All annotators are experts in the field of coral taxonomy and use guides to assist in identifications. Annotated images were then compiled to give the benthic cover for each of the labels used and exported as a CSV file. Each label is identified down to species where possible and is based on regional standards

Área de Estudo Tobago, ten sites - Flying Reef, Buccoo Outer Reef, Buccoo Western Reef, Culloden East, Culloden West, Plymouth, Castara, Angel Reef, Blackjack Hole, Booby Island

Descrição dos passos do método:
