Description

This map shows the connectivity of Coral trout (Plectropomus leopardus) in the Great Barrier Reef and its surrounding areas: Torres Strait, Coral Sea and Great Sandy regions. The arrows indicate the strength and nature of the connection between the regions. This map is intended to identify where one region is dependent on a neighbouring region.

Additional notes: This map does not show the connectivity between subregions of the GBR but only with its surrounding regions.

The data for this map was developed based on expert opinion (Dave Welch).
