Cumulative and Secondary Impacts: Seawalker, Scuba BOB, and the Fish Eye Underwater Observatory, Piti and Cocos Lagoon, Guam
This data package was created 2025-12-03 10:32:08 by NPSTORET and includes selected project, location, and result data. Data are from Roy T. Tsuda and Terry J. Donaldson's (University of Guam Marine Laboratory) 2004 Technical Report #108 entitled "Cumulative and Secondary Impacts: Seawalker, Scuba Bob, and the Fish Eye Underwater Observatory, Piti and Cocos Lagoon, Guam" funded the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the Guam Coastal Management Program. The purpose of the project was to assess the cumulative and secondary impacts, i.e., repetitive occurrences within a confined area, of three marine recreational activities, i.e., Fish Eye Underwater Observatory in Piti Bay, Seawalkers in Piti Bay and Cocos Lagoon, and Scuba BOB (Breathing Observation Bubble) in Cocos Lagoon. Only Piti Bay data are presented here.
Data contained in WAPA_NPSTORET_BE.ACCDB (NPSTORET back-end file) were filtered to include:
Organization:
- WAPA: War in the Pacific National Historical Park
Project:
- WAPA0023: Cumulative and Secondary Impacts: Seawalker, Scuba Bob, and the Fish Eye Underwater Observatory, Piti and Cocos Lagoon, Guam
Station:
- Include Trip QC And All Station Visit Results
Value Status:
- Accepted or Certified (exported as Final) or Final
The data package is organized into six data tables:
- Projects.csv - describes the purpose and background of the monitoring efforts
- Locations.csv - documents the attributes of the monitoring locations/stations
- Results.csv - contains the field measurements, observations, and/or lab analyses for each sample/event/data grouping
- HUC.csv - enumerates the domain of allowed values for 8-digit and 12-digit hydrologic unit codes utilized by the Locations data table
- Characteristics.csv - enumerates the domain of characteristics available in NPSTORET to identify what was sampled, measured or observed in Results
- Taxon.csv - enumerates the domain of taxa available in NPSTORET to identify the organism sampled for Results
Period of record for filtered data is 2004-01-16 to 2004-02-03. This data package is a snapshot in time of one National Park Service project. The most current data for this project, which may be more or less extensive than that in this data package, can be found on the Water Quality Portal at:
