| | 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.

Catania, with the "plume" of volcano Etna and with its splendid coasts, has been chosen as an ideal seat for MWWD 2004, thanks to the availability and the support of the local Authorities. |
