UH WRRC Ocean Outfall Biomonitoring: surveys and sampling data at selected sites near ocean sewage outfalls around Oahu, Hawaii, from 1990 to 2010

Preview graphic

This dataset contains community structure of fish and macrobenthos, surveys of selected coral and fish assemblages, sediment monitoring, benthic faunal sampling, and fish census data from selected sites near ocean sewage outfalls around Oahu, Hawaii. These data were gathered by the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa Water Resources Research Center (WRRC). Sites include Barber's Point Outfall, Mokapu Ocean Outfall, Sand Island Deep Ocean Sewage Outfall, and Waianae Ocean Outfall.
