    • Geospatial_Data_Presentation_Form: map
Description:
  • Abstract:
    • Maps of relative classifications (low to high) for six resilience indicators and two anthropogenic stressors and a map of final relative resilience scores for 78 sites in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands. The six resilience indicators are: bleaching resistance, coral diversity, coral recruitment, herbivore biomass, macroalgae cover and temperature variability. The two anthropogenic stressors are fishing access and nutrients and sediments. The resilience score map compares sites across all four of the surveyed islands: Saipan, Tinian, Aguijan, and Rota.
  • Purpose:
    • These maps were developed to visually display the results of a field-based assessment of relative resilience potential conducted in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands between 2012 and 2014.
