This map was created by MACBIO as resource for the bioregions workshop in Feb 2018. The map represents the number of times a front has been detected in Sea Surface Temperature. Data is based on Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS).
Maps showing geomorphic features. The maps were developed by MACBIO as resources for the bioregions workshops in Feb 2018.
Several maps showing a number of different chemical properties of the ocean, like nitrate concentration, oxygen concentration, ph, phosphate concentration, inorganic carbon concentration, Particulate organic carbon concentration, silicate concentration, surface temperature, radiation availability, mixed layer depth, phytoplankton concentration, available radiation and productivitiy.
These maps were developed by MACBIO as resource for the bioregions workshop in Feb 2018.
Map of marine pollution incidents by fisheries observer. Resolution 1 degree grid. Resource Map developed by MACBIO for bioregions workshop in Feb 2018.
Map showing reefs at risk in Solomon Islands EEZ. Map developed as resource by MACBIO for the bioregions workshop in Feb 2018.
Map showing the location of submarine cables traversing Solomon Islands EEZ. The map was developed by MACBIO as resource for the bioregions workshop in Feb 2018.
Map showing the location of Turtle tag stations and migration routes. The map was developed by MACBIO as resource for the bioregions workshop in Feb 2018. Data is based on SPREP's Turtle Research and Monitoring Database System (TREDS).
Maps showing different aspects of tuna catch data within Solomon Islands EEZ. Maps were developed by MACBIO as resource for the bioregions workshop in Feb 2018.
Map showing location and wave height of historic Tsunami events from 2000B.C. to the present. The map was compiled by MACBIO as resource for the bioregions workshop in Feb 2018. Data is based on National Geophysical Data Center, NOAA.
Map showing Tuna Management Zones of Solomon Islands EEZ. Data is based on Solomon Islands Tuna Management and Development Plan. The map was created by MACBIO as resource for the bioregions workshop in Feb 2018.
A map depicting vessel traffic in Solomon Islands EEZ. The map was developed by MACBIO as resource for the bioregions workshop in Feb 2018.
A map showing the pressure and competing claims on the marine environment of Solomon Islands caused by different uses.
The map was developed by MACBIO to visualise the competition on marine resources.
The MACBIO project classify the entire marine environment within the MACBIO participating countries to inform, in particular, their national marine spatial and marine protected area planning efforts. The draft outputs are marine bioregions that include reef-associated and deepwater biodiversity assemblages with complete spatial coverage at a scale useful for national planning. Results for the Solomon Islands have been presented to the marine experts and government of the Solomon Islands for review.
Maps and associated data from the Turtle Research and Monitoring Database System (TREDS). A summary of the database can be found below.
The Turtle Research and Monitoring Database System (TREDS) provides invaluable information for Pacific island countries and territories to manage their turtle resources. TREDS can be used to collate data from strandings, tagging, nesting, emergence and beach surveys as well as other biological data on turtles.
The World Database on Protected Areas (WDPA) is the most comprehensive global database of marine and terrestrial protected areas, updated on a monthly basis, and is one of the key global biodiversity data sets being widely used by scientists, businesses, governments, International secretariats and others to inform planning, policy decisions and management. The WDPA is a joint project between UN Environment and the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).
This dataset provides the timeline of major natural disasters that have affected islands in the FSM, compiled by Whitney Hoot and Danko Taborosi of Island Research & Education Initiative (iREi), from the year 1775 to 2012.
