Marine Futures Project: Middle Island

Middle Island is the most easterly of the Marine Futures sampling areas, and is located in the Recherche Archipelago, which comprises over 150 islands east of Esperance.
This collection comprises datasets describing habitat mapping, biodiversity and human uses in the Middle Island area.
Habitat mapping consists of four Google earth detailed and basic biota and substratum maps for Middle Island.
There are two baited remote underwater video systems (BRUVS)
datasets and five interactive Microsoft Excel charts each of which contribute to biodiversity analysis. The baited videos illustrate the fish diversity over an array of habitats found throughout the Middle Island study location.
The interactive Microsoft Excel charts combine the biodiversity and mapping products to give the user an interactive and visual display of which organisms are found in what habitats.
A Human Uses report containing an appendix of the Middle Island study location is also included.
