Comprehensive Reef Health Assessment Protocol

SECTION 1: MULTI-FACTOR STRESS EVALUATION

A. Core Integrity Assessment (Base Scoring)
1. Reef Integrity Score:
   - Excellent: 0 points
   - Good: +1 point
   - Moderate: +2 points
   - Poor/Very Poor: +3 points

2. Resilience Modifiers:
   - Biodiversity Index Very High: -2 points
   - Biodiversity Index High: -1 point
   - Nearby Healthy Reef (Adjacent): -1 point
   - Reef Monitoring Duration > 6 years: Require stronger evidence of stress

B. Dynamic Stress Indicators (Weighted Scoring)
1. Bleaching Events Per Year:
   - Rare: 0 points
   - Occasional: +1 point
   - Frequent: +2 points
   - Constant: +3 points
   Modifier: If Biodiversity Index is Very High, reduce points by 1

2. Predator Activity Complexity:
   - None: 0 points
   - Low: +1 point
   - Moderate: +2 points
   - Severe/Catastrophic: +3 points
   Compensatory Factor: If Coral Age > 20 years, reduce points by 1

3. Acoustic Intensity Evaluation:
   - Baseline Range (100-300): 0 points
   - Outside Baseline:
     * 300-500: +1 point
     * 500-1000: +2 points
     * >1000: +3 points
   Contextual Adjustment: Reduce points if Current Flow Quality is Excellent

C. Environmental Stress Indicators
1. Pollution Level:
   - Low: 0 points
   - Moderate: +1 point
   - High: +2 points
   - Critical: +3 points

2. Invasive Species Impact:
   - Not Detected: 0 points
   - Detected: +2 points

SECTION 2: CLASSIFICATION DETERMINATION
Stress Classification Matrix:

Total Points Interpretation:
- 0-3 points: POTENTIALLY HEALTHY
- 4-6 points: REQUIRES FURTHER INVESTIGATION
- 7+ points: STRESSED

FINAL VERIFICATION:
- Examine Additional Contextual Factors:
  1. DistantStressIndicators
  2. Previous Stress Incidents
  3. Coral Dominant Type
  4. Surveyor Experience

Adaptive Recommendation:
- If significant compensatory factors exist, consider manual expert review before final classification.

Interpretation Guideline:
- No single factor determines reef health
- Interconnected assessment considering ecosystem complexity
- Prioritize holistic understanding over rigid categorization
