Zip file containing shapefile and metadata for deepwater bioregions of the Southwest Pacific Ocean. Thirty, mainly physical, environmental variables were assessed to be adequately comprehensive and reliable to be included in the analysis. These data were allocated to over 140,000 grid cells of 20x20 km across the Southwest Pacific. K-means and then hierarchical cluster analyses were then conducted to identify groups of analytical units that contained similar environmental conditions.

Animated Key Messages from the State of Environment and Conservation in the Pacific : 2020 Regional Report
This report focuses only on Rio +20, Millennium Development Goals (MDG) and the Mauritius Strategy for Implementation (MSI) of the BarbadosProgramme of Action (BPOA). Tuvalu is a signatory and party to these international agreements and has been trying to realize the global dream for sustainable development
FAO data providing an overview of Palau's profile in relation to fishery and aquaculture indicators.
Besides the observation that poor households are more vulnerable to negative shocks because they lack the resources to respond, the study also find that they are also more likely to reside in areas highly exposed to disasters (closer to the coasts and at lower elevation) and have less ability to migrate (between and within the islands).
All contents described in the printed map are included in the digital data set which is constructed by Arc/GIS.
Tuvalu's shallow marine environments are dominantly fringing and patch reefs. Five of the islands are true coral atolls, with a continuous eroded reef platform surrounding a central lagoon, three islands are comprised of a single islet made up of sand and coral materials (McLean & Hosking, 1991).
Based on the findings of the study, a number of key lessons emerged. The lessons learned from the study of the FCA are consistent with lessons learned from evaluating past MPA projects from other countries. The most significant of the lessons learned from the Funafuti experience are as follows:
Part I: Biodiversity of Tuvaluan Reef Fishes
Part II: Marine Resource Assessment in Conservation Area
Part III: Documented Tuvalu Marine Life Inventory
Addressing rainfall trends, the frequency of droughts, La Niña influences and the relationship between rainfall and Sea Surface Temperature (SST) in the small Pacific country of Tuvalu.
