Marine Biosecurity Toolkit: Sampling Guidance

Résumé

This document provides sampling guidance for rapid marine assessments performed in the field to detect new marine non-indigenous species (NIS) across the Pacific islands and territories. It provides links to existing information and resources to help support the planning of sampling activities. The protocols below have been broadly based on Rapid Assessment Survey (RAS) protocols that have been utilised by numerous researchers and citizens internationally (Campbell et al. 2007).
