Abstract

This report summarises the results from the 2009–2016 assessment of seagrass change at permanent transect sites established as part of the Western Basin Dredging and Disposal Project (WBDDP). One of the overarching goals of this program was to assess seagrass condition at the sites in relation to the pre-, during and post- dredging phases in parallel with recorded in situ environmental data (i.e. light and temperature). This work complements long-term annual seagrass monitoring conducted since 2002 which examines and re-maps the full extent of seagrasses each November at the time of their maximum distribution (see Rasheed et al. 2017b).
