- Statement
- This data was acquired by the ACEAS Seagrass Group as part of the 2013 Australia-wide risk assessment of Seagrass. Source file: WA_MAFRL_seagrass_gda94_z50.shp Method as taken from the 2013 report "Synthesis of seagrass mapping studies" conducted by the Water Science Branch of the Department of Water": An aquatic flora survey of the Hardy Inlet was conducted in April 2008 from the top of Molloy Island and the Scott River Basin to the mouth of the Inlet. The survey employed broad-scale characterisation techniques such as manta tows along transects, to cover the large area. Coverage estimates of seagrass and macroalgae were carried out according to that of English et al. (1994). Percentage cover was estimated on a scale of 0 to 100%, incorporating five categories, 0-10%, 11-30%, 31-50%, 51-75% and 76-100%. The GPS location of the beginning and end of transects were recorded. GPS coordinates and depths were also taken at points of interest and where there were any visual changes in habitat.
