How are scores calculated?

Your group's overall score reflects how closely your reported values match the group averages, calibrated against typical performance from a fixed baseline period of past training years. The overall score is based on the average of the scores below for species abundance, blade length, and short shoot density. To learn more about how scores are calculated, check out the scoring document.

Abundance reported (most common) Blade length reported cm (most common) Short shoot density reported per m 2 (most common)
Halodule Transect 3 51-75% (51-75%)
Transect 5 5-25% (5-25%) 10.6 (7.1) 38 (23.8)
Transect 6 few (few) 9.2 (2.3)
Transect 7 <5% (<5%)
Syringodium Transect 2 5-25% (5-25%) 32.8 (19.2) 18.7 (15.7)
Transect 6 5-25% (5-25%) 34 (24.8) 4.3 (3.7)

Species shaded grey (non-SAV) are only scored on abundance.
