Marine Science & Scientific Diving
Field-ready marine science, from observation to defensible data.
3P supports marine and environmental programs through scientific diving, underwater surveys, ecological monitoring, careful documentation, quality control, and disciplined reporting.
3-P Consulting maintains a scientific-diving program and is currently pursuing AAUS Organizational Membership.
Core marine capabilities
Prepared for the work beneath the surface.
Effective marine programs depend on more than time in the water. Planning, field readiness, observation standards, documentation, and traceability must operate as one system.
- Scientific diving
- Underwater surveys
- Marine field operations
- Coral monitoring
- Coral mitigation and relocation
- Aquatic invasive species survey support
- Habitat assessment
- Photo and video documentation
- Research support
- Field data, QA/QC, and reporting
Field workflow
A disciplined line from mobilization to reporting.
The workflow protects safety, data quality, continuity, and the usefulness of every field observation.

Coral mitigation & monitoring
Coral mitigation at operational scale.
Marine-science leadership has experience with major coral mitigation projects involving more than 6,500 corals relocated across Guam and Hawaiʻi.
Long-term manta research
Research continuity reveals what individual encounters cannot.
Our scientific leadership has conducted manta ray research and photo-identification monitoring since 2005.
The work supports individual recognition, ecological observations, population-pattern analysis, and long-term continuity.
Aquatic invasive species
Field and quality-control support in sensitive environments.
3P supports scientific diving, biological observations, survey coordination, field documentation, and data QA/QC for aquatic invasive species work.
Selected project details withheld at client request.
Documentation & defensible data
Document what happened. Preserve what matters.
Photos, video, survey records, timestamps, locations, field notes, biological observations, and QA/QC records create a traceable account of field conditions and decisions.

Plan the field program around the decisions it must support.
We collaborate with agencies, prime contractors, researchers, nonprofits, landowners, design teams, and community partners.
