Surveys of deepwater benthic communities using a Remote Operated Vehicle (ROV) in Ningaloo Marine Park, Western Australia (WAMSI Node 3 Project 1 Subproject 3.1.1)

Created 24/06/2017

Updated 09/10/2017

The ROV was used in four different locations and communities of the marine park to gather more detailed video data of different benthic communities. Two locations were in the northern section of the park, North West Cape and Point Murat and two in the southern part, Red Bluff and Warroora. Four 50m ROV video transects originating from a centre weight at four different bearings (90, 180, 270, 360 degrees) were conducted at each location. Each transect was analysed using AVTAS software to investigate in more detail the diversity and composition of different communities in the marine park.
