Surveys of benthic organisms, reef fishes and manta tow surveys of Capricorn Bunker reefs in October 2015 (NESP TWQ 3.7, AIMS)

This dataset consists of summaries of benthic, fish and manta tow surveys conducted in the Capricorn-Bunker Region of the Great Barrier Reef in October 2015. It consists of three tables:
1. A table summarising percent cover of benthic organisms grouped into broad categories from photo transects collected during the monitoring surveys.
2. A table of average abundance for each reef fish species on the 5 transects in each of the three sites on each reef is presented for the eight reefs surveyed.
3. A table of the average reef wide coral cover, the mean reef-wide density of crown-of-thorns starfish (CoTS), Acanthaster planci and the mean reef-wide density of coral trout for each reef based on manta tow surveys.

This dataset is an extract from part of the AIMS Long Term Monitoring database.

本数据集包含2015年10月在大堡礁摩羯-邦克区域开展的底栖生物、鱼类及蝠鲼拖曳调查的汇总信息。它包含三个表格：
1. 表格1：汇总监测调查期间通过照片样线采集的、按大类分组的底栖生物覆盖百分比。
2. 表格2：呈现8个受调查珊瑚礁中，每个珊瑚礁内3个站点各5条样线上的每种礁鱼物种平均丰度。
3. 表格3：基于蝠鲼拖曳调查，呈现每个珊瑚礁的全礁平均珊瑚覆盖度、全礁平均棘冠海星（CoTS，学名Acanthaster planci）密度及全礁平均珊瑚鳟密度。

本数据集是AIMS长期监测数据库的部分提取内容。
