Abstract

[Extract] Seagrasses have been monitored in the Port of Thursday Island biennially since 2002 and annually since 2016. Nine seagrass monitoring meadows representing the range of different seagrass community types found in the Thursday Island region are assessed for changes in area (distribution), biomass (density), and species composition. Changes in the seagrass biomass, area and species composition are used to develop a seagrass condition index.
