  description: This maps shows the geomorphic features of the seafloor in Solomon Islands EEZ. Conservation International, GRID-Arendal and Geoscience Australia recently collaborated to produce a map of the global distribution of seafloor geomorphic features. The map represents and important contribution towards the understanding of the distribution of blue habitats.

  description: Map showing a classification of seamounts in Solomon Islands EEZ. Classification is based on Blue Habitats global classification scheme. The map was designed by MACBIO as resource for the workshop on bioregions in Feb 2018. Data is based on Yesson et al. (2011) "The global distribution of seamounts based on 30-second bathymetry data and Harris et al. (2014) "Geomorphology of the oceans".
