@conference { , title = {Digital Moorea Cyberinfrastructure for Coral Reef Monitoring}, year = {2009}, month = {07/12/2009}, abstract = {Digital Moorea is a collaborative vision of a coral reef ecosystem instrumented with real-time sensors connected to high-performance backend resources and sophisticated client applications. It will be a living laboratory for long-term studies of marine ecology and a testbed for evolving technologies for environmental and biological sensing, communications, and analysis. A diverse team of ecologists, computer scientists, and engineers from the Marine Science Institute at the University of California Santa Barbara (MSI, www.msi.ucsb.edu/) and the California Institute of Telecommunications and Information Technology (CalIT2, www.calit2.net/) are collaborating to bring this vision to reality at the Moorea Coral Reef site (MCR LTER, www.mcr.lternet.edu) of the U.S. National Science Foundation?s Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) program.}, author = {Tony Fountain and Sameer Tilak and Peter Shin and Sally Holbrook and Russell J.
