study will provide a irst overview on the Alexandrium species associated with HABs in Indonesia; 2 investigating the genetic diversity of isolates corresponding
to A catenella with microsateltite markers, in order to complete the ongoing A catenella biogeographical study for which data for this region is lacking; 3 looking
at the strain diversity of Alexandrium and other dinolagellates present in ballast and harbor waters and sediments, which should further help our understanding
of the dynamics of expansion and colonization process of toxic species.
Results of this research should provide new information on the taxonomy and diversity of dinolagellates in Indonesian waters, as well as new insights into the
biogeography of Alexandrium genus. This collaborative project will represent a good opportunity to train scientists from LIPI-RCO to cyst examination and
taxonomy, and to co-supervise Master andor PhD students.

Purpose of Research: In my research I aim to assess efectiveness of reef restoration, speciically BioRock, around the Gili Islands, just of the northwest
coast of Lombok, Indonesia. I hope to identify if the coral restoration in the Gili Islands can be biologically efective for replication at even larger scales in marine
parks throughout Indonesia. Many researchers have assessed restored reefs in terms of coral growth, but few have examined if coral community assemblages
the diferent coral species and shapes that make up the coral reef, ish diversity and biomass on are comparable to natural reefs in similar habitats. I also hope to
determine which habitat characteristics depth, distance from shore, etc lead to the most successful restoration projects.
Methodology: My research will have three components: 1 monitoring large highly mobile ish stationary point counts; 2 monitoring small and hidden ish
species belt transects; and 3 measuring coral and other immobile organisms quadrat counts. Stationary point counts will be conducted irst because large
mobile ish are more likely to swim away. I will identify all ish greater than 25cm in length identifying to species if possible, and estimating length within 5 cm
that swim within a 10 meter diameter during a ive minute time period. In order to count all species within the cylinder I will position myself in the center of the
cylinder and rotate. For the belt transects, I will make two 20 meter swims or transects over the coral identifying species and estimating length of all small
less than 25cm in length, or cryptic hidden ish within 2 meters to either side of the transect line. On the irst swim I will identify all species greater than 10cm
in length, while on the second swim I will identify ish less thanlOcm in length and cryptic species. Quadrat counts will be used to assess coral diversity and
assemblages. For this method I will construct 1 by 1 meter square quadrats using P VC pipe. At each site I will randomly place the quadrat in six locations. At each
I will identify to genus or species if possible, otherwise to family and measure each immobile organism within the boundaries of the quadrat. All monitoring
will be conducted by myself, Kelly Haisield, and my research assistant, Adam Oaks, using self contained underwater breathing apparatus SCUBA equipment
and done monthly at both restored and control sites, which I will identify based on similarity of habitat and geographical location to restored sites. At each site, I
will measure spatial location, temperature, depth, visibility, and slope. I will map and spatially analyze sites using Arc GIS 9 software, and statistically analyze ish

diversity, biomass and coral assemblages. If commercially important species sharks, grouper, etc. are observed outside of transects they will be recorded, but
not included in statistical analyses.
Location: Shallow water coral reefs surrounding Gili Trawangan, Lombok, Indonesia.
