Monitoring the Vulnerability and Adaptation of Coastal Fisheries to Climate Change Northern Manus Outer Islands Papua New Guinea

Considering the concerns of climate change and its impacts on coastal fisheries resources, SPC is implementing the ‘Monitoring the Vulnerability and Adaptation of Coastal Fisheries to Climate Change’ project with funding assistance from the Australian Government’s International Climate Change Adaptation Initiative (ICCAI). This initiative aims to assist Pacific Islands Countries and Territories (PICTs) to determine whether changes are occurring in the productivity of coastal fisheries and, if changes are found, to identify the extent to which such changes could be attributed to climate change, as opposed to other causative factors. This report presents the results of the second round of monitoring conducted in Manus Province, Papua New Guinea, in April-June 2014. Collected data are compared to that from the 2012 baseline survey to examine changes in resource status over time.
