Method for monitoring intertidal communities in a steep rocky shore: a combination of digital image technology and field operational strategy

This paper introduces a method for temporal studies of steep rocky intertidal communities. It combines the use of digital image technology with field methodology, so that a wide area of the community can be sampled in a short time. Two current nondestructive percent cover estimation methods (visual...
