Map with 1-degree resolution of observations of marine pollution incidents. The map was developed by MACBIO as resource for the bioregions workshop in Feb 2018. Data is based on SPREP: SPC/FFA Regional Observer Programme.
Map showing reefs at risk in Solomon Islands EEZ. Risk categories: low, medium, high and very high. Data: Reefs at Risk Revisited (2011), World Resource Institute. The Reefs at Risk project assesses the status of and threats to the world's coral reefs from a wide range of human activities including coastal development, overfishing, and pollution.
The map was developed by MACBIO as resource for the bioregions workshop in Feb 2018.
Map showing the location of submarine cables transversing Solomon Islands EEZ. Data is based on http://www.cablemap.info. 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). TREDS provides invaluable information for Pacific Islands countries and territories to manage their turtle resources.
Map showing tuna catch in metric tonnes of small- and large-scale fisheries catches. Data is based on http://SeaAroundUs.org. Additionally a graph of annual fish catch by sector is added.
Map data represents the tuna catch using the "longline" method from 1950-2012. Longline fishing is a commercial fishing technique. The map was developed by MACBIO as resource for the bioregions workshop in Feb 2018. Data is based on WCPFC Public Domain Data.
Map showing tuna catch in metric tonnes using the "Pole and Line" method from 1950-2012. The map was developed by MACBIO as resource for the bioregions workshop in Feb 2018. Data is based on WCPFC Public Domain Data.
Map showing tuna catch using the "Purse Seine" method from 1950 - 2012. The map was developed by MACBIO as resource for the bioregions workshop in Feb 2018. Data is based on WCPFC Public Domain Data.
Map showing the location and maximum wave height of historic tsunamis from 2000 B.C. to the present. Events were gathered from scientific, scholarly sources, regional and worldwide catalogues, tide gauge data, deep ocean sensor data, individual event reports and unpublished works. The map was compiled by MACBIO as resource for the bioregions workshop in Feb 2018. Data stems from the Global Historical Tsunami Database.
Map of Tuna Management Zones based on Solomon Islands Tuna Management and Development Plan. Data Baseline is The Delimitation of Marine Waters Act, 1978.
A Map showing vessel traffic within and through Solomon Islands EEZ. The map was developed by MACBIO as resource for the bioregions workshop in Feb 2018.
Data is based on data collected by SPREP using Automatic Identification System (AIS). AIS was designed primarily as a collision avoidance system for large class vessels.
