Manual of methods and techniques for surveying mangrove crabs in the Sa'anapu-Sataoa Conservation Area / by Karen M. Kool

Description:
The people in the canoes are responsible for measuring 40 m along the line of the channel between pot sites, checking that the pots have been set correctlv (i.e. flat J on the bed, and checking that the rope from the buoy to the pot is long enough to ensure tiat the buoy will float freely at high tide. For measuring the 40 m between pot sites, a canoe paddles ahead with the tape measure while the dinghy, or other canoe, acts as an anchor at the previous pot position and feeds out the tape.
