Colonization Riou South

Monitoring of the colonization
The sites are monitored. The period between each visit is ideally of about one month. However, meteorologic condition and possibility to benefit from vessel access time are limitating the regularity. At each visit, the 3 ARMS boxes and the 3 ASUs are photographied all over the experiment.
