This report summarizes field and lab-based activities undertaken during 2009 as part of the Ningaloo recruitment project supported through WAMSI as Project 3.1.2. A solid start has been made to meet the objectives of the project which is based on coral and fish recruitment in the Ningaloo Marine Park (NMP). Three trips totalling 54 field days were conducted in the months of February, March and April 2009. The principal activities undertaken and accomplished were the;1) establishment of robust protocols and methodologies to address the above objectives for both fish and coral recruitment, and 2) gathering of the first year's data for determining spatial and temporal patterns of fish and coral recruitment in the NMP.
1. Design parameters for the Ningaloo long term monitoring program for coral and fish communities including: baseline data; coral recruitment relationships; and the required level of spatial and temporal replication.2. Enhance management effectiveness in planning spatial management controls, by utilizing information on reef connectivity between both monitoring locations and management zones (i.e. sanctuary and non-sanctuary).
