High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Hawai`i Institute of Marine Biology is a marine biology laboratory located on the state-owned Coconut Island in K ne'ohe Bay. Coconut Island is approximately 29 acres, including 6 acres of enclosed lagoons used to keep organisms being studied in captivity. Surrounding it are 64 acres of coral reef, designated by the state of Hawai i as the Hawai i Marine Laboratory Refuge. It is part of the University of Hawaii at Manoa. It is the only research facility in the world built on a coral reef. The boundaries of the Hawaii Marine Laboratory Refuge surrounding the island start at the high water mark on the island and go to twenty-five feet beyond the outer edges of the reefs, including sand and seawall shoreline, where coral and sand calcium carbonate reef flats are exposed at low tides. High coral and macro-algae flourish at shallow-depth zones while the deep habitats are characterized by sediment with low coral cover and colonized by slumping from upper reef zones.
