Implementing a Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) & Lesson Learned In Pohnpei, FSM The Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) Ridge to Reef (R2R) project would like to acknowledge its Executing Agency, the Department of Environment, Climate Change and Emergency Management (DECEM), along with state R2R focal points and staff, steering committee members, local government agencies and NGO partners for their ongoing support. This lessons learned publication was authored by Dr. Chiara Franco, FSM R2R Chief Technical Adviser, Ms. Rosalinda Yatilman, FSM R2R Project Manager, and Ms.
Data Management System Project
This dataset holds three reports on invasive species in Micronesia. . The objectives were three-fold: * To identify species on the islands that are presently causing problems * To identify species that, even though they are not presently a major problem, could spread to other islands where they are not present, potentially causing problems * To look for invasive species known to cause problems in ecosystems similar to the islands visited.
This report is based on a survey of the island of Kosrae, Federated States of Micronesia, from 24 to 28 March 2000.
From February - April 2024, the National Environment Service and Te Ipukarea Society conducted consultations with various stakeholders for the RESPONSE project. Documents from these consultations have been filed here.
This report presents the latest update on the state ofenvironment in PNG. Although some information is scarce,the report provides a snapshot of our environment, giventhe diverse pressures and threats we are facing from bothnatural and anthropogenic causes. The SoE report uses a reporting model to describethe state of environment in PNG. It identifies drivingforces and pressures that result in the current state ofenvironment, and suggests a potential response strategy.Recommendations are presented for future legislative orother actions
This report focuses on addressing the critical challenges of sustainable water resources management on Tutuila, the main island in the Territory of American Samoa. It presents an updated conceptual hydrogeological model of the island's groundwater and surface water resources by integrating existing hydrological information with recently acquired subsurface datasets, shedding light on the complex nature of Tutuila's hydrogeology, which varies significantly across different locations on the island.
This report documents the UH monitoring network which provides hydrologic parameters, such as precipitation, stream flow, and aquifer response, in small island developing communities like Tutuila, American Samoa, where water resources are limited. It highlights the collaborative efforts between the University of Hawaii's Water Resources Research Center and the American Samoa Power Authority to establish a new monitoring network for weather, stream gauging, and aquifer data, providing essential information for sustainable water resource management and various applications
Soil Survey and analysis by Hawaii State Office, Soil Conservation Service, US Department of Agriculture, Honolulu, Hawaii. The field survey was completed in November 1981.
