Executive Summary<br />
Advice is also provided on data analysis, interpreting results, simplifying methods, and modifying the<br />
protocol for other biogeographic and geographic regions.<br />
This document represents the first attempt to develop a <strong>monitoring</strong> program that is specifically<br />
designed to monitor key functional groups of herbivorous reef fishes as indicators of coral reef<br />
resilience. Even though it is based on the best available information, it is important to remember that<br />
the science underpinning these methods is still new and developing. Further research is now required<br />
to address knowledge gaps and refine <strong>monitoring</strong> methods.<br />
