Bleching common on Porites spp (starting sigbed) and Pocillopora spp (more advanced bleaching). Fewer urchings compared to northern sites. Terrigenous sediment common on dead coral colonies. Meadows of P. compressa, although coral cover was more abundant at deeper depths (>10m). Shallower areas dominates by granitic rocks. Settlement tiles and permanent markers. |
