Still More Coralwatch Studies on Koh Tao
During the recent Ecodiver course on Koh Tao the participants were also introduced to Project Aware’s Coralwatch coral monitoring program.
Developed & conducted in Conjunction with The University of Queensland, Coralwatch is an attempt to bring coral monitoring into the mainstream of everyday divers.

Coralwatch is a simple program and an effective survey only takes a few minutes during an average dive. Data entry is conducted online and a readily accessible database is maintained on the internet.
Over the last few days we have conducted a number of Coralwatch surveys at both Twins & Mae Haad reef to add to the Global data maintained by Project Aware.
Many thanks to Caskey Miller, Nick Prest, Eveline van den Heuvel, Gannon Murphy, Donal R O'Brien, Karl Presland for their participation.
