Hi Pat, I've uploaded a zipped folder on to your ftp site. It includes our benthic habitat analysis (both raw and analyzed data) for our sites on the Kona Coast. I included all the raw photo-quad images as they would permit a future researcher to do any sort of analysis they would want. The methods for how and where the data was collected is in a word doc. Additional data about the transects (depth, rugosity etc) and the analyzed photo-quad outputs are also in an excel file. I tried to include all the meta data I could find, but please let me know if there's anything critical I'm missing and I'll take another look. Have a great holiday, Jeremy -----Original Message----- From: Pat Caldwell [mailto:caldwell@hawaii.edu] Sent: Monday, December 20, 2010 1:21 PM To: Jeremy Claisse Subject: Re: [Fwd: Re: HCRI Data] Aloha Jeremy, Just touching base to see if the Xmas break gives you a chance to dig out the HCRI data.
