Dear colleagues,
I was hoping to glean some information from the invaluable numbers
of researchers on coral list. I am trying to get historical live coral
cover estimates for the following coral reef MPAs (see below), as near as
possible or later than to historical date and as close to the present date
where present date is needed.
These could be from either: monitoring, one-off studies or expert opinion. If
anyone can provide any estimates, please could you email me at
vah03 at ic.ac.uk, with the estimates *and* the source of this data e.g. expert
opinion/ study? I realise that especially for large areas, these will
always be average estimates with large standard errors.
