This is a collated zipped file of the documents and results from the first meeting of CTI Coordination Committee (CCC1) in Jakarta (May 22-24) 2008. This contains all decision documents (the "Jakarta Draft", Chairman's Summary, the decision document on coordination mechanism, and the decision document on roadmap adjustment) as well as all other supporting documents (daily minutes, expert's presentation, and the Issues and Options Discussion Draft).

This zipped file compiles documents, reports and publications developed and produced by CTSP NGO partners including the Solomon Islands National Coordinating Committee during the course of the 5-years USCTI Support Program under the CTI-CFF national work program (2009-2013).

This dataset contains rasters and a metadata file for global mean monthly sea surface temperature (°C) from 2010-2019. Rasters are in WGS84 coordinate system (EPSG 4326). Sea surface temperature is the temperature of the top millimeter of the ocean's surface. Sea surface temperatures influence weather, including hurricanes, as well as plant and animal life in the ocean. Like Earth's land surface, sea surface temperatures are warmer near the equator and colder near the poles. Currents like giant rivers move warm and cold water around the world's oceans.

This dataset contains rasters and a metadata file for global mean monthly ocean chlorophyll concentration (mg/m3) from 2010-2019. Rasters are in WGS84 coordinate system (EPSG 4326) . Chlorophyll-a is the light-harvesting pigment found in all photosynthetic plants. Its concentration in the ocean is used as an index of phytoplankton biomass and, as such, is a key input to primary productivity models.

Zip file containing NetCDF files for both zonal and meridional current velocities (meters/second) for 5 day temporal resolution for the years 2000-2019 in the WGS84 coordinate system (EPSG:4326).

A map showing simply the location of seamounts in Solomon Islands EEZ. The map was developed by MACBIO as resource for the workshop on bioregions in Fab 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".

Map developed by MACBIO as resource for the bioregions workshop in Feb 2018. Nitrate is an essential resource, which, together with available light, determines the amount of organic matter that can be synthesized by phytoplankton through photosynthesis. Nitrate concentration is also a key variable of biogeochemical and ecosystem models. Data is based on CSIRO Atlas of Regional Seas (CARS).

Dissolved oxygen is a key parameter to trace physical dynamics and to better understand biogeochemical processes in the World Oceans. O2 concentration is always the balance between biological terms (production by phytoplankton, consumption through respiration by all organisms) and ocean atmosphere o2 exchanges (so-called ventilation processes).
The map was developed by MACBIO as resource for the bioregions workshop in Feb 2018. Data is based on Tyberghein L., et al (2011) Bio-ORACLE: a global environmental dataset for marine species distribution modelling.

Map developed by MACBIO as resource for the bioregions workshop in Feb 2018. Data is based on CSIRO Atlas of Regional Seas (CARS).

All living organisms require the nutrients nitrogen and phosphorus for their growth, metabolism and reproduction. Research has demonstrated that phytoplankton productivity in the surface ocean is often limited by the amount of available fixed inorganic nitrogen and available phosphorus.
The map was developed by MACBIO as resource for the bioregions workshop in Feb 2018. Data is pased on CSIRO Atlas of Regional Seas (CARS).

Map of particulate Inorganic carbon in Solomon Islands Oceans. The map was developed by MACBIO as resource for the bioregions workshop in Feb 2018. Data on inorganic carbon is based on CSIRO: Lutz et al 2009.

Map of distribution of particulate organic carbon that represents the concentration of carbon in the ocean.
The map was developed by MACBIO as resource for the bioregions workshop in Feb 2018. Carbon data is based on CSIRO: Lutz et al 2009.

Particulate organic carbon flux represents the rate at which carbon is cycled through the ocean and the factors that may alter the rates of transfer.
The map was developed by MACBIO as resource for the bioregions workshop in Feb 2018. Data is based on CSIOR: Lutz et al. 2009.

Map of silicate concentration of Solomon Islands Ocean. Silicate, or silicic acid (H4SiO4) is an important nutrient in the ocean. Silicate is an essential chemical requirement for very specific biota, inlcuding diatoms, radiolaria, silicoflagellates and siliceous sponges.
