Alamagan is located approximately in the middle of the Mariana Archipelago, with a land area of 11.2 square km and features an active volcano. Feral pigs, goats, and cattle are causing extensive damage to terrestrial ecosystems, and these terrestrial effects are likely linked to the marine environment through runoff and sedimentation. The reef communities at Alamagan are noticeably less developed than those observed at Guguan Island, which lies only 26 km to the south.
