Several members of the scientific dive team enter the water. For Noelle’s thesis work, she is conducting video transects to determine percent coral cover. To accomplish this, help is needed with data collection. One member of the dive team will navigate along a predetermined heading while another controls a GPS unit attached to a surface buoy by a line and reel. Noelle follows closely behind the navigator and collects video images of the seafloor. Image courtesy of Bonaire 2008: Exploring Coral Reef Sustainability with New Technologies.
