GCRMN 2002 Report published
Status of Coral Reefs of the World: 2002
22nd March 2005
The 2002 report on the status of the world’s
coral reefs is a mix of bad news and good news, but there is strong evidence
that the corner is being turned in our ability to stop reef decline, provided
this continues to be supported by sufficient political will.
We can predict gains in coral reef health at specific sites in many regions
within the coming 2 decades. Many different projects are reducing the damaging
human impacts on coral reefs and also setting more reefs aside for protection.
Unfortunately, a large proportion of the world’s reefs are outside protected
areas, and much effort will be needed to replicate the small-scale successes at
national and regional scales. In addition, many coral reef countries do not have
national coral reef programs or monitoring plans, and are often unaware of the
extent of damage to their reefs.
Status
of Coral Reefs in the Southwest Pacific Region to 2002: Fiji, Nauru, New
Caledonia, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Tuvalu and Vanuatu.
