Coral Reef Monitoring in Xcalak Marine Park
During
the first week of October, Lucy Gallagher, our Marine Projects Director, headed
down to Xcalak for the second time this year to help out the Marine Park
Authority (CONANP) with their coral
reef monitoring activities. She was joined by volunteer Lena Ericson.
Lucy
and Lena have worked together in the past on fish identification surveys and
were happy to note that the reef was in extremely good condition following
Hurricane Dean. Thanks again to CONANP for allowing us to join them down at
their Field Station in Xcalak.
