Some ambiguity can arise when a human carries a transect tool that is not laid out on the ground, like a transect reel. In these cases, we generally decide this tool becomes part of the human polygon. |

Includes rocks and heavily decomposed coral skeletons. Also includes human-made structures (underwater infrastructure) such as pipes, pier columns, coral nursery tables, buoys and their lines, as well as boat anchors. |

This includes the water surface, which is sometimes visible. |

Appears most commonly in a branching form (Millepora Dichotoma). |
 | 22  | branching alive           | <span style="display:inline-block;width:100px;height:15px;background-color:rgb(226,91,157);border:1px solid black;"></span>  | Branching corals that can surely be determined to be alive, but do not fit in to ‘table acropora alive‘, ‘acropora‘, ‘stylophora’, or ‘pocillopora��� because they are from a different genus or appear slightly blurred in the context. |
