To display locations of optical validation data collected and percent coverage of scleractinian coral at Lisianski Island. Lisianski Island and adjacent Neva Shoals, located at 26N, 174W, is an open atoll ecosystem. The underlying basaltic structure is estimated to be 20 million years old. The island is large (1.46 sq. km) and the coral reef habitats less than 100 m are extensive (979 sq. km).
