Towards reproducible analysis of benthos structural complexity: A case study on Antarctic polychaete reefs using action cameras and remotely operated vehicles

Habitat-forming organisms possess structural complexity that drive multiple ecosystem processes. There is a lack of knowledge and protocols on how to quantify Antarctic habitat-forming organisms structural complexity and associated species.

Description
Summary:Habitat-forming organisms possess structural complexity that drive multiple ecosystem processes. There is a lack of knowledge and protocols on how to quantify Antarctic habitat-forming organisms structural complexity and associated species. This project aims to characterize the structural complexity of an Antarctic polychaete reef, describe a protocol to acquire this data, and discuss monitoring implications.
