Marine Habitat Assessment

Marine habitat assessment is a process used to evaluate the health and condition of ocean environments. It involves examining features like coral reefs, seagrass beds, and seabed types, as well as measuring factors such as water quality, biodiversity, and human impacts. The goal is to understand how healthy these habitats are, identify areas of concern or degradation, and inform conservation and management efforts. By collecting data through surveys, sampling, and technology like underwater cameras, scientists can make informed decisions to protect and restore marine ecosystems for the future.
