Quantitative Surveys of Fish Assemblage at a High-rise Artificial Fish Reef by Stationary Underwater Cameras

Stationary underwater cameras were deployed to evaluate spatial and temporal distribution of fish assemblage inhabiting a high-rise artificial reef. The camera named FISCHOM has a stereo camera or a monaural camera on board and it can operate periodically by an arbitrary interval. We can acquire the information about fish fauna and fish size distribution and their time series of reef fish assemblages by the assessment using the FISCHOMs. Two...
