Domingo Ochivillo during his talk on Key Reef Species and Belt Transect at the American Samoa QUEST Training at Nu'uuli. Domingo also came to the training the next day to practice how to do Belt Transect in the water, so Tafito Aitaoto, Sione Lam Yuen Jr, Tasha Fuiava and Junior Fuimaono get an experience how to monitor a protected area by using this method.

Francis Leiato, Sione Lam Yuen Jr and Junior Fuimaono along with their assigned leader Ephraim Temple practicing Rugosity on our first 25m transect.

Tasha Fuiava and Tafito Aitaoto along with their assigned leaders Sinifa Annandale and Ching Wei practicing Rugosity on our first 25m transect.

Burt Fuiava demonstrating how to use Rugosity to measure the amount of habitat available for marine animals to live in. Rugosity is a measure of complexity, rugosity is presumed to be an indicator of the amount of available habitat available for colonization by benthic organisms (those attached to the seafloor), and shelter area for mobile organisms. After Burt's demonstration we went in the water and practice how to use this monitoring method at our three 25m transects that Ephraim, Senifa and Ching set up to do our practice.
