Summary

Description

Corals are anthozoans, the largest class of organisms within the phylum Cnidaria. Comprising over 6,000 known species, anthozoans also include sea fans, sea pansies and anemones. Stony corals (scleractinians) make up the largest order of anthozoans, and are the group primarily responsible for laying the foundations of, and building up, reef structures.

Question:

What is the National Coral Reef Monitoring Program (NCRMP)

Answer:

The National Coral Reef Monitoring Program (NCRMP) details a long-term

approach to provide an ecosystem perspective via monitoring climate, fish,

benthic, and socioeconomic variables in a consistent and integrated manner.

The NCRMP is intended to coordinate various Coral Reef Conservation Coral

Reef Program (CRCP) biological, physical, and human dimensions activities

into a cohesive NOAA-wide effort. Through the implementation of the NCRMP,

NOAA will be able to clearly and concisely communicate results of nationalscale monitoring to national, state, and territorial policy makers,

resource managers, and the public on a periodic basis.
