D overall score

                    Ten groups had a higher score

                    Zero groups had the same score

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 2 25-50% (51-75%) 18.4 (14.6) 23 (24.6)
Transect 6 <5% (5-25%) 5.4 (8.4) 18 (21)
Transect 7 5-25% (5-25%)
Transect 8 few (25-50%) 0 (20.5) 0 (8.8)
Transect 9 76-100% (25-50%)
Transect 10 76-100% (76-100%)
Ruppia Transect 10 solitary (few)
Syringodium Transect 7 25-50% (25-50%)
Transect 8 76-100% (5-25%) 0 (23.8) 0 (6.5)
Thalassia Transect 2 solitary (few) 0 (18.4) 0 (1.8)
Transect 9 <5% (<5%)
DR: Acanthophora Transect 6 - (few)
Transect 7 - (5-25%)
DR: Chondria Transect 7 - (<5%)
DR: Gracilaria Transect 7 - (few)
Species shaded grey (non-SAV) are only scored on abundance.
Abundance summary

C- 

reported values are less consistent than other groups, direction varies by species
