Assessment of the effects of the 2004 coral bleaching event at Lihou Reef National Nature Reserve (Coral Sea) using towed video (Towvid)

Created 24/06/2017

Updated 09/10/2017

Reefs in the Lihou Reef National Nature Reserve (NNR) were surveyed between 8-13 October 2004 in order to assess the effects of significant coral bleaching, which was observed during previous surveys in March 2004.

A series of six video tows were conducted at depths between 45m and 60m, in the lagoon area of Lihou Reef NNR and also to the north of Anne Cay. A computer-based application, allowing keyboard classification was used to analyse the video tapes. Habitats were classified based on the substrata (3 categories) and overlying epibenthos (6 categories) viewed on the tapes.
