Purpose
|
Map underwater resources (corals, bottom habitat) and evaluate water
properties in the waters off Kaloko-Honokohau National Historical Park,
Pu'ukohola Heiau National Historic Site, and Pu'uhonua o Honaunau National
Historical Park. Collection of underwater video and bottom photography; CTD

|
|
Information to be Derived
|
Benthic habitat/seafloor characterization; water temperature and
salinity.

|
Summary
|
Collect geographically referenced underwater video, photographic, and
CTD data for the primary purpose of documenting the offshore resources
including coral reefs and other benthic habitats.
