Arnavon Community Marine Conservation Area (ACMCA) was first established in 1995 and aims to conserve all species inhabiting the Arnavon Islands. Within the project MACBIO ACMCA was one of the focus areas. Analysis and lessons learned are summarised in this dataset. (2017)
This report brings together data, literature and the outputs of a special workshop synthesizing information about the identified special, unique marine areas in Solomon Islands.
As one step in Marine Spatial Planning the MACBIO project developed bioregions, or the classification of the marine environment into spatial units that host similar biota across the South West Pacific. Based on a scientific, technical process draft bioregions were developed and discussed and confirmed during a workshop in February 2018 resulting in the report on Bioregions at national scale for the Solomon Islands.

A report that was prepared for the FSM National Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan project
This thesis used a combination of sediment, coral, fish, climatic, and oceanographic data, and focused on the Pohnpei Lagoon, examining a range of natural and human issues in the marine environment both at the local level (focusing on that within the Pohnpei Lagoon) and regional level (focusing on the western Pacific region).
This report contributes to the development of a marine gap analysis for Papua New Guinea’s marine area. ” The gap analysis identifies conservation priorities throughout Papua New Guinea’s marine area to inform protected area
planning, environmental impact assessment and other biodiversity conservation interventions.
