Drawing transect diagrams
Transect diagrams are like
fish-eye views of the habitats within a region, providing a spatial
dimension to mapping exercises undertaken for resource assessment
purposes. They are representations of geographical cross-sections of
coastal ecosystems or habitats ranging from deep
water to beaches and mangrove areas and the resources,
issues and opportunities associated with each habitat.
