Shark Bay Malgana seagrass restoration monitoring (NESP MaC 1.8)
In March 2020 UWA and the Malgana Rangers transplanted by hand 36 pieces of Posidonia australis and Amphibolis antarctica into nearby restoration plots at Dubaut Point, Shark Bay. In March 2022 UWA went back to assess survival and shoot growth which is detailed in this dataset.

Resource lineage
- Statement
- Survival and shoot count of Posidonia australis and Amphibolis antarctica was assessed 2 years following transplantation by Malanga Land and Sea Rangers to Dubaut Point, Shark Bay (WA) (March 2020 - March 2022). Both species were planted in a 6 x 6 grid with 1m spacings between each transplant so dead/missing transplants were easily note (0 = dead transplants). The number of shoots on each of the surviving transplant were counted in situ while on snorkel. Shoot counts are for each individual sprig. Summary variables included: % survival, Average number of shoots per species and SE (n=36).
