Bindjareb Djilba (Peel Harvey) Seagrass Survey - Cover (DWER-128)

ARCHIVED

Created 13/01/2025

Updated 11/02/2025

The Peel-Harvey Estuary was surveyed in March and April 2021 by underwater drop camera observations and/or observations through a viewing cone. Seagrass species distribution and cover (as percentage cover in categories: 0, 0-10%, 10-25%, 25-50%, 50-75%, 75-90%, 90-100%) were recorded. The canopy height (in 10 cm intervals) and epiphytic cover (as low, medium, high) of seagrass was also estimated. Macroalgae distribution and cover (as percentage cover in categories: 0, 0-10%, 10-25%, 25-50%, 50-75%, 75-90%, 90-100%) were recorded. At approximately a third of the sites, physical water profiles, photosynthetically active radiation (euphotic depth) and secchi depth were recorded. The datasets making up the Peel-Harvey Estuary Seagrass Survey data are: PeelHarvey_Seagrass - point dataset PeelHarvey_Seagass_Extent - polygon showing presence/absence derived from points PeelHarvey_Seagrass_Cover - polygon showing percentage cover derived from points Layers: PeelHarvey_Seagrass_Mar_2021 - PeelHarvey_seagrass points where Year = '2021' PeelHarvey_Seagrass_Extent_2021 - Hardy_Seagrass_Extent where Year = '2021'

PeelHarvey_Seagrass_Cover_2021 - Hardy_Seagrass_Cover where Year = '2021'
