# Coral Reef Health Classification Rules

Evaluate each coral reef using the following comprehensive set of rules to determine if it is HEALTHY or STRESSED. Apply these rules sequentially and classify accordingly.

## Rule 1: Current Flow and Integrity Assessment
- If CurrentFlowQuality is "Poor" AND ReefIntegrityScore is "Very Poor", classify as STRESSED.
- If CurrentFlowQuality is "Excellent" AND ReefIntegrityScore is "Excellent" or "Good", classify as HEALTHY unless contradicted by Rule 6.
- If CurrentFlowQuality is "Poor" but ReefIntegrityScore is "Excellent" or "Good" AND ReefAverageAge > 30, classify as POTENTIALLY HEALTHY (confirm with Rules 5 and 7).

## Rule 2: Pollution and Biodiversity Assessment
- If PollutionLevel is "Critical" AND BiodiversityIndex is "Low", classify as STRESSED.
- If BiodiversityIndex is "High" or "Very High", consider the reef POTENTIALLY HEALTHY (confirm with Rules 5 and 7).
- If PollutionLevel is "Critical" or "High" but BiodiversityIndex is "High" or "Very High" AND ReefAverageAge > 35, consider the reef POTENTIALLY HEALTHY (confirm with Rules 5 and 7).
- If BiodiversityIndex is "Medium" AND ReefAverageAge > 30 AND AlgalCoverage is "Minimal" or "Sparse", consider POTENTIALLY HEALTHY (confirm with Rules 5 and 7).

## Rule 3: Reef and Coral Age Evaluation
- If CoralAgeEstimate ≤ 10 AND ReefAverageAge < 25, classify as STRESSED unless BiodiversityIndex is "High" or "Very High".
- If CoralAgeEstimate ≥ 16 AND ReefAverageAge > 35 AND BiodiversityIndex is not "Low", consider the reef POTENTIALLY HEALTHY (confirm with Rules 5 and 7).
- If ReefAverageAge > 50, consider the reef POTENTIALLY HEALTHY even with CoralAgeEstimate < 15 (confirm with Rules 5 and 7).

## Rule 4: Bleaching and Algal Coverage Assessment
- If BleachingEventsPerYear is "Constant" AND AlgalCoverage is "Extensive" or "Heavy" AND BiodiversityIndex is "Low", classify as STRESSED.
- If BleachingEventsPerYear is "Constant" or "Frequent" but BiodiversityIndex is "High" or "Very High" AND ReefIntegrityScore is "Excellent" or "Good", this is not automatically indicative of stress (evaluate using Rules 5 and 7).

## Rule 5: Positive Health Indicators
If THREE OR MORE of the following conditions are met, classify as HEALTHY unless Rule 6 applies:
- CurrentFlowQuality is "Excellent" or "Good" or "Fair"
- BiodiversityIndex is "High" or "Very High"
- AlgalCoverage is "Minimal" or "Sparse"
- ReefIntegrityScore is "Excellent" or "Good" or "Moderate"
- PollutionLevel is "Low" or "Moderate"
- ReefAverageAge > 30
- CoralAgeEstimate > 15
- NearbyHealthyReef is "Adjacent" or "Nearby"

## Rule 6: Critical Stress Indicators
If ANY THREE of the following conditions are met, classify as STRESSED regardless of other factors:
- AcousticIntensity > 800
- PollutionLevel is "Critical" AND BiodiversityIndex is "Low" or "Medium" 
- CurrentFlowQuality is "Poor" AND ReefIntegrityScore is "Very Poor" or "Poor"
- BleachingEventsPerYear is "Frequent" AND AlgalCoverage is "Extensive" or "Heavy"
- CoralAgeEstimate < 10 AND ReefAverageAge < 25
- PreviousStressIncidents is "Major"

## Rule 7: Special Cases for Medium Biodiversity Index
If BiodiversityIndex is "Medium", classify as HEALTHY if ALL of these conditions are met:
- PollutionLevel is "Low" or "Moderate"
- AcousticIntensity < 500
- At least ONE of: ReefIntegrityScore is "Excellent" or "Good", CurrentFlowQuality is "Excellent" or "Good", or ReefAverageAge > 30
- BleachingEventsPerYear is NOT "Constant" or "Frequent"

## Rule 8: Poor Current Flow Compensating Factors
If CurrentFlowQuality is "Poor", still classify as HEALTHY if ALL of these are true:
- ReefAverageAge > 30
- BiodiversityIndex is "Medium", "High", or "Very High"
- AcousticIntensity < 400
- AlgalCoverage is "Minimal" or "Sparse"
- PollutionLevel is "Low" or "Moderate"

## Default Rule
If no clear classification has been made from the above rules:
- If BiodiversityIndex is "High" or "Very High" AND AcousticIntensity < 600 AND ReefAverageAge > 25, classify as HEALTHY.
- If CurrentFlowQuality is "Poor" AND PollutionLevel is "Critical" or "High", classify as STRESSED.
- If AcousticIntensity > 600 AND PollutionLevel is "High" or "Critical", classify as STRESSED.
- If TWO OR MORE of these key indicators (BiodiversityIndex, ReefIntegrityScore, CurrentFlowQuality, PollutionLevel) are positive, AND AcousticIntensity < 500, classify as HEALTHY.
- In uncertain cases, if ReefAverageAge > 35, lean toward HEALTHY; otherwise, classify as STRESSED.

When evaluating, apply rules in sequence but prioritize Rules 5 and 6 when their conditions are conclusively met.
