EcoRRAP Benthic Orthomosaics

The current orthomosaics represent scaled, 2D, representations of benthic communities at EcoRRAP study sites. Orthomosaics are generated from raw imagery collected by divers (see SOP #14: Reef monitoring sampling methods | AIMS) and processed using photogrammetry software Agisoft Metashape. Orthomosaics can be used to extract a range of data describing benthic communities including: community composition, spp. abundance, colony size-frequency distribution, and spatial arrangement. Comparison of orthomosaics between years can also be used to quantify changes in the above metrics as well as vital rates and demographics (growth, mortality, partial mortality).

Coral recruit size-escape thresholds under fish grazing (RRAP CAD_02.2)

Algae covered tiles containing week-old and month-old coral recruits of Acropora millepora, Acropora kenti and Goniastrea retiformis were exposed to different types of fish grazing to investigate the impact of grazing on coral recruit survival. High resolution images of tiles where used to track recruit size and survival, and algae coverage, pre and post 24 hour exposure to fish grazing. The tested fish grazers were Ctenochaetus binotatus (a &#39;brusher&#39;), Salarias fasciatus (&#39;brusher&#39;), Acanthurus nigrofuscus (&#39;cropper&#39;) and Zebrasoma scopas (&#39;concealed cropper&#39;); also included were a &#39;control&#39; treatment where tiles were undisturbed for the 24 hours and a &#39;manual&#39; treatment where algae was removed by an aquarist. After the experiment, fish were anaesthetised and measured. These data were collected in December 2023.

NESP MaC Project 1.31 - Scoping Study: Indigenous Participation and Research Needs, 2021-2022 (NAILSMA)

This record provides an overview of the NESP Marine and Coastal Hub small-scale study - "Scoping Study: Indigenous Participation and Research Needs ". For specific data outputs from this project, please see child records associated with this metadata.

This scoping study builds on the engagement undertaken during the development of the NESP proposal for the Marine and Coastal Hub, where 42 Traditional Owners and Native Title holders across mostly northern Australia provided support for our bid.  This period of engagement identified the need to consult widely with Indigenous leaders and groups before committing to substantive research projects.  This scoping study provides the resources to begin such a consultation with Indigenous partners on their aspirations for the Marine and Coastal Hub. It will also provide a vehicle for the Hub to actively engage the NESP Indigenous Facilitators Network. 

As part of the Australian Government policy on Closing the Gap and consistent with Part 6 of the Northern Australia Indigenous Development Accord, this scoping study will explore how best to execute increased Indigenous ownership over participatory research and how such a program can deliver on the Department’s stated aspirations of meaningful and substantive engagement of Traditional Owners.  This scoping study will bring together key Indigenous leaders and groups to plan, prioritise and evaluate potential research directions. This will require marshalling of Indigenous knowledge and development and enhancement of Indigenous relationships. Consultation will involve both Indigenous only and Indigenous-researcher meetings and workshops.  We are seeking ethical Indigenous engagement, equitable participation and co-design and co-delivery of national environmental research priorities, while substantially increasing the outcomes for social, economic and cultural terms for Indigenous people.

NESP MaC Project 4.20 - Delivery of science to support the implementation of a marine park management effectiveness system (CSIRO)

This record provides an overview of the NESP Marine and Coastal Hub Research Plan 2024 project "Delivery of science to support the implementation of a marine park management effectiveness system". For specific data outputs from this project, please see child records associated with this metadata.

Australian Marine Parks (AMPs) form one of the world’s largest marine park systems, protecting natural, cultural, social and economic values across Commonwealth waters. Parks Australia’s Management Effectiveness system supports adaptive management by assessing whether management arrangements are protecting park values and responding to changing pressures.

This project supported implementation of the Australian Marine Parks Science Plan and delivered key science needs for the 2028 National AMP management plan review. It built on previous Marine Biodiversity Hub and Marine and Coastal Hub work on natural values, pressures, cumulative impacts, monitoring priorities and management effectiveness.

The project delivered four linked outputs:

1) Monitoring protocols for Tier 1 and Tier 2 priority monitoring sites, including site-specific monitoring plans, data and survey method inventories, condition indicators, pressure indicators, and partnership case studies with Traditional Owners.
2) Improved workflows for assessing natural values, activities and pressures, including updates to pressure information, and establishment of data agreements and processes for regular updates.
3) Assessment approaches for emerging industries, using offshore renewable energy adjacent to AMPs as a test case to identify potential impacts such as underwater noise, seabed disturbance, sediment transport, vessel interactions, displacement of existing activities, and other future uses such as decommissioning or carbon storage.
4) Improved system-wide understanding of AMPs through collaboration with Parks Australia, state and territory marine protected area managers and fisheries managers, including opportunities to align data, indicators and management effectiveness approaches.

The outputs provided Parks Australia with a more consistent evidence base for adaptive management, management plan review, monitoring design, pressure assessment and cross-jurisdictional collaboration across Australia’s marine park system.

Outputs
• Updated national-scale spatial datasets of: (1) Natural Values Ecosystems; (2) Key Natural Values; (3) Pressures &amp; Activities; (4) Cumulative impacts; (5) Ecosystem-level risk assessment (absolute risk) [datasets]
• Refined list of monitoring priorities for AMPs [written]
• Monitoring protocols for monitoring priorities [written]
• Final project report [written]
