SONORUN 2022
The operation in Reunion Island in November 2022 allowed the record of 32 sites of the outer reef slopes to establish a baseline of their soundscape. In parallel, stereo cameras fixed on the devices filmed fish assemblages on each site. These images allow us to identify better the acoustic signatures associated with the presence and abundance of these fishes, thus refining our monitoring indicators. Sixteen of these sites are monitored by the Global Coral Reef Monitoring Network (GCRMN) and Reserve Effect programs. The results of our study will be compared to the results of these traditional programs. This comparison will highlight the new information managers could benefit from thanks to our solution.
