Focus on:
- 1. Teasing apart natural and anthropogenic impacts on seagrasses in Feather Sound;
- 2. Documenting spread and fate of volunteer Halodule patches in Feather Sound using aerial photography and RTK-GPS, and
- 3. Analysis of more recent aerial photos to determine El Nino impacts and seasonal changes in seagrass cover.
