Waters associated with the main reef complex at Lizard Island, North Queensland were studied during September 1977 as a component of the second "Lizard Island Metabolic Exchange on Reefs" (LIMER II) expedition.

Two approaches were taken: a) Nutrient Transects; water sampling for biological and nutrient analyses was carried out along fixed transects (one leeward reef, one windward reef) on which radar-reflecting buoys were set up marking boundaries between major benthic zones and b) Hydrology Transects; temperature, salinity and oxygen data was determined to describe water structure.
