The dataset comprises 624 individuals from 67 species of fishes, sharks, rays and sea snakes observed at 6 sites (Townsville Midshelf Reefs) using 18 baited remote underwater video stations (BRUVS(TM)).

Approximately 3500 of the best images from all BRUVS (TM) projects are stored in a reference library.

Data recorded concern: - classification of the habitat in the field of view (topography, sediments, benthos) - the identity of fish and CAABCODES - their time of arrival - their behaviour (8 categories, including feeding on the bait) - their maturity (adult or juvenile) - their relative abundance (as MaxN = the maximum number visible at one time, or distinguishable at different times as separate individuals e.g. much larger/smaller, male/female) - the time elapsed before MaxN and feeding occurs.

A custom interface has been developed by AIMS staff, using Microsoft Access, for reading and analysis of BRUVS(TM) tapes.
