• Shipping Activity

    This dataset was used as base data in Reefs at Risk. Shipping activity data used in the model of threat to coral reefs from marine-based pollution and damage in the Reefs at Risk Revisited project. This dataset was derived at WRI from the World Meteorological Organization Voluntary Observing...

  • Bleaching observations (1963-2010)

    This dataset was used as base data in Reefs at Risk. Point locations of reported observations of coral bleaching between 1963 and 2010. This dataset was built upon an original bleaching database developed at UNEP-WCMC, and has been maintained and updated regularly by ReefBase since early 2002.

    FORMATS:
  • Tropical Coral Reefs of the World (500-m resolution grid)

    Global map of shallow, tropical coral reefs, gridded at 500-m resolution for use in the Reefs at Risk Revisited project. The coral reef location data were compiled from multiple sources by UNEP-WCMC, the WorldFish Center, and WRI. To standardize these data for the purposes of the Reefs at Risk...

  • Reefs at Risk Revisited (Social Vulnerability Data)

    This shapefile features the Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZs) for 108 coral reef countries and territories classified according to an index of their reef dependence, adaptive capacity, and social vulnerability. Results are presented as quartiles, with 27 countries/territories classified in each of...

  • Reefs at Risk Revisited: Climate-Related Threats Data

    Global (i.e., climate-related) threats to the world's coral reefs were analyzed. These include: past thermal stress (i.e., warming seas and bleaching over the last decade), future thermal stress (ie., projections of future warming in 2030 and 2050); and ocean acidification (i.e., reduced ocean...

    FORMATS:
  • Reefs at Risk Revisited (Local Threats Data)

    Threats from coastal development, marine-based pollution and damage, overfishing and destructive fishing, and watershed-based pollution were analyzed separately. These threats were integrated into the Integrated Local Threat index. Past thermal stress was integrated with local threats into the...
