Coral Reef Habitat

Remote sensing from space offers an effective approach to solve the limitation of field sampling, in particular to monitor the reefs in remote sites. Moreover, using the achieved remotely sensed data, it is even possible to monitor the historic status of the coral reef environment. The capabilities of satellite remote sensing techniques combined with the field data collection have been assessed for generating coral reef habitat mapping of the Derawan Island. A very high spatial resolution multi-spectral QuickBird image (October 2003) has been used. The capability of QuickBird image to generate a coral reef habitat map with the water column correction by applying the Lyzenga method, and also without the water column correction by the applying maximum likelihood method, have been assessed. The classification accuracy of the coral reef habitat map increased after the improvement of the water column effects. The classification of QuickBird image for coral reef habitat mapping increased up to 22% by applying a water column correction. Keywords : Coral Reef, Quickbird, Water Column Correction

Coral Reef Habitat

New surveys of the Kimberley Nearshore Bioregion are beginning to fill knowledge gaps about the region’s marine biodiversity and the national and international conservation significance of this little-known tropical reef system. Here we report the recent finding of two unique coral habitats documented at Adele Island and Long Reef during theWoodside 2009/2010 Collection Projectsurveys. Firstly, we report the finding of a subtidal zone of mixed corallith and rhodolith habitat which appears on current records, to be unprecedented in Australia. Secondly, we report the discovery of an atypical Organ Pipe Coral habitat zone and provide empirical evidence that this commercially valuable species reaches an unparalleled level of benthic cover. We provide additional details about the wider hard and soft coral assemblages associated with these unique habitats; discuss the potential biological causes and consequences of them, and make recommendations to benefit their conservation.
