Coral recruitment surveys, Ningaloo Reef, Western Australia (WAMSI Node 3 Project 3.1.2)

Created 24/06/2017

Updated 09/10/2017

The abundance of newly settled corals following the 2009 and 2010 annual coral spawning peaks was measured in the northern half of Ningaloo Reef at eleven locations between Coral Bay, Tantabiddi and Bundegi. An annual influx of coral recruits were detected at all locations, using terracotta tiles deployed by divers on the reef using permanent tile mounting fixtures, then subsequently retrieved and counted under a dissecting microscope.
