Description
This map shows the connectivity of Seagrass meadows: tropical/sub-tropical (Cymodocea serrulata, Syringodium isoetifolium) 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: Predominantly tropical with some isolated populations in subtropics.
The data for this map was developed based on expert opinion (Catherine Collier, Len McKenzie).
