Coral Reef Mapping
 
The first global map of tropical shallow water has been created through joint effort of NASA and NOAA. Nearly 44,000 SeaWiFS (Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-View Sensor) scenes collected over five years were processed to 1 sq.km cells by NASA Space Flight Center using algorithms developed by NOAA for water shallower than 20-30 meters. NOAA is working with the UNEP World Consdervation Monitoring Centre to use this data set to improve the database of coral reef locations used in ReefBase.   See More...

The interactions between fishes and forests are complex, dynamic processes involving most inland surface waters, forests, subsurface waters, geology and soils, climate and the biotic components. Many aspects of these interactions are important to marine and coastal activities such as migratory fish, water pollution form forest development and habitat modification. Fishes and Forestry.
