Abstract:
The Micronesia Conservation Trust (MCT) is pleased to provide its final progress report describing efforts achieved under this Cooperative Agreement (CA) for “Expanding Science-to-Management Frameworks for Coral Reef Ecosystems Across Micronesia” that was implemented between October 1st, 2016 and December 31st, 2018. Through the ongoing efforts of the NOAA Cooperative Agreement, sustained progress and tangible results continue to be achieved from the evolving science-to-management networks that support the regional work of the Micronesia Challenge. Under this program, MCT and its partners continued to build and expand on the work conducted under prior NOAA CA’s by continuing to use defendable biophysical and socioeconomic monitoring and evaluation protocols to collect, analyze, and translate coral reef and socioeconomic monitoring results to further strengthen the regional science-to-management network built over the last decade in support of the Micronesia Challenge. MCT and its partners have also supported improved fisheries management, built local capacity to implement and evaluate management strategies to responding to climate change impacts, and strengthened the management of protected areas and PANs in Palau, FSM, and RMI.
