Abstract
In this paper, the status of oceanic pasture and artificial reefs are introduced. The development of oceanic pasture and artificial reefs monitoring in the word is presented. Development of monitoring technology is divided into three stages according to the history. The first stage is that divers observing the ocean and obtain information about marine organisms. The second stage is using sensor such as sonar, cameras, to observe the ocean and obtain information about marine organisms. The third stage is employing underwater vehicles in the monitoring tasks. Finally we propose that underwater vehicles will be the future trend of artificial reef monitoring based on the advantages of underwater vehicles in monitoring.
Highlights
In this paper, the status of oceanic pasture and artificial reefs are introduced
Artificial reefs are built around the world: Australia has built Artificial Rocky Reef Fish Communities in Botany Bay, New South Wales
In order to observe the construction of artificial reefs and growth status of fish in reefs, we commonly use some methods, such as underwater naturalist, underwater photography, sonar, surface buoy and underwater vehicles and so on
