ANDAMAN CORAL ECOLOGIST DIVER PROGRAM
This project seeks to implement a monitoring protocol conducted by recreational divers towards generating data for effective coral reef management in the Andaman Islands. Strategic sites have been selected to best represent the reef and biological indicator species of fish and invertebrates have been identified to help us gauge environmental parameters and reef health. As a citizen science initiative the project will use a dive certification to encourage recreational divers to participate in the monitoring and conservation of coral reefs in the Andamans.
