This Service contains the following layers
| Title | Description |
|---|---|
| CLME: TV_CBC_MPA_ALL_20171207_noscale | This layer shows all Marine Protected Areas (MPA) around the area of the Caribbean Biological Corridor (CBC). The CBC is a biodiversity management framework, established by the Governments of the Dominican Republic, Cuba and Haiti in 2007 (Jamaica is Permanent Observer). The CBC framework does not include marine ecosystems. Given the transboundary nature of shared living marine resources, the need to expand the scope of the CBC to include also marine protected areas is evident. Ecosystem connectivity has been recognized to be key to the effectiveness of protected areas. |
| CLME: TV_Aichi_Targets_ALL(M)_20171209_noscale | Attributes in this layer show country priorities regarding the Aichi Biodiversity Targets of the Convention of Biological Diversity (CBD). Governments that have published CBD National Biodiversity Strategies and Action Plans (NBSAP) have aligned national priorities to specific targets, 11 of which are related to the objectives of the CLME+ SAP. |
| CLME: TV_fish_supply_20171212_noscale | No abstract provided |
| CLME: TV_MSP_status_20171210_noscale | This layer compiles the status of Marine Spatial Planning (MSP) by phase within countries with MSP initiatives, as reported by the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission of UNESCO. Seven phases are identified: 1. Pre-Planning 2. Analysis for planning 3. Managment Plan Development 4. Management Plan Completion 5. Management Plan Approval 6. Management Plan Implementation 7. Management Plan Revision |
| TV_MEX_Hábitats Bentónicos de Ecosistemas Marinos del Caribe Mexicano: Cabo Catoche - Xcalak. 2018 | El mapa representa la distribución espacial y extensión de los hábitats bentónicos de los ecosistemas marinos del Caribe mexicano, cubriendo las aguas someras del sistema arrecifal mesoamericano entre Cabo Catoche y Xcalak. El mapa resultante se generó a partir de la unión de los mapas de cobertura bentónica y del relieve submarino. Se definieron 50 clases en un área de 1001.3 km2 con una profundidad máxima promedio de 18 m. |
| tv_mex_manglar_yucatan | No abstract provided |
| TV_MEX_Pastos marinos del Caribe Mexicano, 2017 | Cartografía de la ubicación y distribución de lechos de pasto marino del Caribe Mexicano. Combinación de la cartografía de cobertura bentónica de la CONABIO (2017) y de la cartografía de la Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana (UAM). Avances en la investigación científica que fue parcialmente financiado (zona norte) por parte de un proyecto con la Comisión para la Cooperación ambiental (CCA) para la formulación de políticas en materia de carbono azul en América del Norte. |
| TV_TTO_Tobago_coastline_type | The coastline type (mangrove, coarse grained sandy beaches, exposed rocky platform, exposed vertiacal rocky shore, fine grain sandy beach, gravel beach, rip rap, sheltered rocky shore and tidal flat) was mapped for Tobago |
| TV_TTO_Tobago_shoreline_stability_assessment_2008_25000 | Shoreline stability measures (eroding, accreting or in dynamic equilibrium) for beaches monitored by the IMA as part of the Coastal Conservation programme from 2004 to 2008 |
| TV_TTO_Trinidad_all_rivers_Trinidad | Watercourses of Trinidad |
| TV_TTO_Trinidad_Bonasse_bathing_beach_water_quality_2014 | A bacteriological water quality survey was conducted during the period 23 April, 2014 to 22 July, 2014 along the coastline at Cedros Bay on the southwest coast of Trinidad, from Bonasse Village to Fullerton Village, Cedros. Bonasse Beach and Fullerton Beach are used for recreational activities by beach-goers and both are also fish landing sites. Fifteen (15) sampling stations were located nearshore along Cedros Bay, from Bonasse Village to Fullerton Village. Nine (9)stations were also established at two rivers, at a stream and at six drains which discharged into nearshore waters and were potential sources of pollution for this section of Cedros Bay. Water samples were collected on five occasions at the 15 nearshore stations, as well as at 9 potential sources of pollution. Faecal coliforms, Escherichia coli and enterococci bacteria were used as indicators of possible faecal contamination or water pollution from sewage |
| TV_TTO_Trinidad_coastline_type | The coastal areas of Trinidad have been classified into categories based on morphology and their vulnerability to spilled oil. The index used in this report combines geological and biological sensitivities to oil spill impacts. The least sensitive to long term oil spill damage is 1, and the most sensitive is 10. |
| TV_TTO_Trinidad_fishing_gear_types_in_gulf_of_paria_1998 | Fishing gear types in the Gulf of Paria |
| TV_TTO_Trinidad_fishing_grounds_off_east_coast_trinidad_2004 | A participtatory mapping of fishing grounds with fisherfold operating off the east coast was conducted |
| TV_TTO_Trinidad_shoreline_stability_assessment_2008_25000 | Shoreline stability measures (eroding, accreting or in dynamic equilibrium) for beaches monitored by the IMA as part of the Coastal Conservation programme from 2004 to 2008 |
| TV_TTO_Trinidad_substrait_type_off_east_coast_Trinidad_2002 | The substrait type off the east coast was gathered based upon participatory mapping of fisherkfolk. |
| TV_TTO_Trinidad_Trace_metals_in_Gulf_of_Paria_1998 | This datasets presents a geochemical assessment for trace metals in coastal sediments of the Gulf of Paria. The total trace metal concentrations of aluminum, copper and lead, iron, manganese, cadmium, nickel, zinc, chromium, mercury, and absorbed or adsorbed petroleum hydrocarbon (AAPH) in the sediments and the clay-enriched sediments of the Gulf of Paria Trinidad is presented. |
