This resource contains satellite imagery for Choiseul Island in the Solomon Islands. The imagery was collected on October 25, 2020.
More specially, this resource contains a raster file of RGB imagery at 10-meter resolution, using Level-2A products when available. Level-2A products include atmospheric correction and represent bottom of atmosphere reflectance values in the images. When Level-2A products were not available, Level-1C (top of atmosphere) products were used.
This resource contains satellite imagery for the Guadalcanal, Central, and Malaita Islands in the Solomon Islands. The imagery was collected on January 23, February 22, April 7, June 24, and October 2, 2020.

10 Field Reports capturing the first rounds of consultations by Solomon Islands Government in 2019 for the development of an Ocean Plan (by 2020).
Map of the protected areas for the Solomon Islands with country-level summary statistics on the amount of area under protection, count for each type of protected area (terrestrial or marine), and the count of their designation.
Map of the protected areas for Choiseul province in the Solomon Islands with country-level summary statistics on the amount of area under protection, count for each type of protected area (terrestrial or marine), and the count of their designation.
Map of the protected areas for Guadalcanal and Central provinces in the Solomon Islands with country-level summary statistics on the amount of area under protection, count for each type of protected area (terrestrial or marine), and the count of their designation.

This dataset contains GIS data (raster and shapefiles) for the local threats to coral reefs: coastal development, integrated local, marine pollution, overfishing, and watershed pollution.
The Global Mangrove Watch (GMW) is a collaboration between Aberystwyth University (U.K.), solo Earth Observation (soloEO; Japan), Wetlands International the World Conservation Monitoring Centre (UNEP-WCMC) and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA).
Conservation International, GRID-Arendal and Geoscience Australia recently collaborated to produce a map of the global distribution of seafloor geomorphic features. The global seafloor geomorphic features map represents an important contribution towards the understanding of the distribution of blue habitats. Certain geomorphic feature are known to be good surrogates for biodiversity. For example, seamounts support a different suite of species to abyssal plains.
Map of predictions of relative probabilities of species occurence in a global grid of half-degree latitude and longitude cell dimensions.
Map of predictions of relative probabilities of benthic marine species occurence in a global grid of half-degree latitude and longitude cell dimensions.
Map of predictions of relative probabilities of pelagic species occurence in a global grid of half-degree latitude and longitude cell dimensions.
Map of artisanal fishing intensity based on data from the global map of human impacts (2008) (https://www.nceas.ucsb.edu/globalmarine2008/impacts).
Map developed by MACBIO for the bioregions workshop 2018. Chlorophyl-a concentration is an important proxy which is routinely measured and is considered a "core" parameter of global physical-biological oceanic models. Map is based on data from NASA's Aqua satellite.
The map contains the global distribution of habitat suitability for seven suborders of cold water octocoral found deeper than 50m. Map is based on data from Yesson et al (2012) Global habitat suitability of cold water Octocorals, Journal of Biogeography 39, 1278-1292.
The map displays the number of coral species that are expected to be found in each grid cell that contains coral reefs as identified by the Millenium Reefs project. The map is based on a spatial data base of geographic range boundaries compiled by the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for Coral Reef Studies compi
This map was developed by MACBIO as resource for the bioregions workshop 2017 and shows ocean surface currents based on data from NOAA Ocean Surface Current Analysis (http://www.oscar,noaa.gov/).
The map depicts paths and intensities of tropical cyclones in Solomon Islands EEZ from 1980 till 2015. Data of tropical cyclone best track data is provided by IBTrACS (International Best Track Archive for Climate Stewardship).
