Abstract:The aim of this study is the development of a method to evaluate a suitable habitat condition of a colony of Acropora tumida which is a kind of stony coral. We improved the HSI model which was often used in a quantitative ecological assessment and suggested the PHSI model which was introduced a probabilistic way of thinking. We can evaluate the optimum habitat condition of coral more precisely than the conventional HSI model by applying the PHSI model to an ecological assessment. We estimated the distribution … Show more
