Abstract

[Extract] A long-term seagrass monitoring program and strategy was developed for the Mackay-Hay Point area following a broad scale extended survey of the region in 2014 and incorporates seagrass monitoring information that has been collected dating back to 2004 for the Hay Point. This annual monitoring strategy assesses two deep offshore monitoring areas at Mackay and Hay Point, a coastal intertidal area between Dudgeon Point and Hay Point, and two subtidal meadows at the Keswick Island group (Figure 1). Seagrass meadows in these areas represent the range of different seagrass community types found in the Mackay-Hay Point region.
