Coral Reef Health Broadscale Reef Fish Survey - Reef Target Fish Survey 2013-2015

Pilbara Marine Conservation Partnership (PMCP) coral reef survey of target fish species and large grazing fish between northern Ningaloo and the Dampier Archipelago.The data include:* Fish UVC database - long transects 100x10m* Abundance and size of fish.* Visual estimates of benthic cover and substratum* Fish families targeted by fishing, plus grazing taxa: Scaridae, Acanthuridae, Siganidae, Kyphosidae. Sharks and rays are included.----The Pilbara Marine Conservation Partnership (PMCP) was an initiative designed to enhance the net conservation benefits of the globally-significant coral reef ecosystems of the Pilbara (Western Australia) by providing an assessment of the condition and trajectory of key ecological values. These assessments were designed to inform and complement existing governance and management arrangements and the PMCP is intended to provide ongoing advice and assessment for conservation efforts in the region, providing lasting benefits.The PMCP concept is based on three core ecological components, namely:Coral Reef Health - concentrating mainly on habitat forming primary producers. Fish and Sharks - their community structure, interactions and impacts on lower trophic levels. Environmental Pressures - physical and anthropogenic factors that influence the condition of reefs and associated biota.皮尔巴拉海洋保护伙伴关系（Pilbara Marine Conservation Partnership, PMCP）针对宁格罗北部至丹皮尔群岛海域的目标鱼类与大型草食性鱼类开展珊瑚礁调查。本次调查获取的数据涵盖以下内容： * 鱼类水下目视普查（Fish UVC）数据库——采用100×10米的长样带设计 * 鱼类的丰度与体长数据 * 底栖生物覆盖度及底质类型的目视评估结果 * 捕捞目标鱼类科，以及草食性类群：鹦嘴鱼科（Scaridae）、刺尾鱼科（Acanthuridae）、篮子鱼科（Siganidae）、舵鱼科（Kyphosidae）。鲨鱼与鳐鱼亦被纳入调查范畴。 皮尔巴拉海洋保护伙伴关系（PMCP）是一项旨在提升西澳大利亚州皮尔巴拉地区全球重要珊瑚礁生态系统净保护效益的倡议，通过评估关键生态价值的现状与演化趋势，为现有治理与管理框架提供信息支撑并形成补充。该伙伴关系旨在为该区域的保护工作提供持续的建议与评估，以带来持久的保护收益。 PMCP的核心理念基于三大核心生态组分构建： 1. 珊瑚礁健康：主要聚焦于构成栖息地的初级生产者 2. 鱼类与鲨鱼：其群落结构、种间互动及对低营养级生物的影响 3. 环境压力：影响珊瑚礁及相关生物群落现状的自然与人为因素
