Technical report of survey conducted May 13-June 17, 2004. The Solomon Islands Marine Assessment represents the first broad scale survey of marine
resources in the Solomon Islands. The survey was conducted over a five-week period from May
13 to June 17 2004, covering a distance of almost 2000-nm and encompassing seven of the nine
provinces. The survey team comprised an international team of scientists and managers,
including some of the world’s experts of coral reefs and associated habitats. The survey
A synthesis of the biological diversity, values and conservation status of sharks and rays of the Solomon Islands.
The report detailed records for the 2013 hunting, up to the time of the visit, included at least 1500 pantropical spotted dolphins (Stenella attenuata), 159 spinner dolphins (Stenella longirostris) and 15 ‘bottlenose’ dolphins, probably Tursiops truncatus. Molecular identification confirmed two of the species, pantropical spotted and spinner dolphins. A summary of all available records from 1976 to 2013 documented a minimum total of 15 454 dolphins killed by the Fanalei villagers alone.
Specifically the report presents:
* the status of sea cucumber stocks in terms of species present, density and population structure, which are
important indicators of stock health;
* baseline information on sea cucumber resources in those sites for future monitoring;
* species that are threatened or endangered from fishing activities and which need to be protect to prevent
local extinctions;
The global seafloor geomorphic features map has been created through collaboration between Geoscience Australia, GRID-Arendal and Conservation International.

This synthesis report is based on a series of detailed technical reports prepared for SPREP and the Solomon Islands Government by BMT WBM, in collaboration with Ecological Solutions Solomon Islands, the University of Queensland, and Aither for the Pacific Ecosystem-based Adaptation to Climate Change (PEBACC) project.
A fact sheet on how Ecosystem-based Adaptation (EbA) helps Solomon Islands to adapt.
Baseline study for adaptation planning at national, provincial and community levels in Solomon Islands
This synthesis report provides an overview of the first seven steps involved to identify, prioritize, and implement ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA) projects in Honiara, Solomon Islands, and is based on a detailed series of technical reports prepared for the PEBACC project by BMT WBM, in collaboration with Ecological Solutions Solomon Islands and the University of Queensland.
EbA options assessment – identification and prioritisation of EbA options for Wagina Island.
EbA options assessment – identification and prioritisation of EbA options for Honiara
The aim of the ESRAM study was to provide a baseline overview of ecosystems and ecosystem services, to inform subsequent EbA phases of the PEBACC project involving the identification of EbA options for strengthening the resilience of Solomon Islands to the impacts of climate change
