Reef Life Survey

GBIF publisher since
11 October 2018

Description

RLS makes the underwater world visible ? to scientists, governments, artists, and anyone with an interest in what lives on coral and rocky reefs around the world and how it is all changing. The key is a huge team of SCUBA divers all using the same detailed methods to record the abundance of all conspicuous species observed on reefs. The team uniquely includes a collaboration of professional scientists working alongside citizen scientists, with a mission to provide high quality, unbiased and publicly available information that is used to better inform management, policy and build public knowledge on the status of reefs.
