- Summary:
-
This report compares the use of fine-scale SCUBA (FSS) and manta tow (MT) for surveys of crown-of-thorns starfish (Acanthaster planci : COTS). In particular we compare: (1) how well FSS and MT predict outbreaks, (2) FSS and MT information based on reefs surveyed by both methods, and (3) patterns of current outbreaks based on both methods. Additionally, we assess the effectiveness of the sampling designs used in FSS. -- executive summary.
