Existence

dynamite fishing and other destructive fishing methods severelydamaged the cover of living coral to the point that in 1989 a studyshowed that the coral in the outer reefs had decreased by 25

percent.

It was once severely threatened by the establishment of a large

seaweed farm in one of the islets in its vicinity,

taking advantage of the sheltered reefs of its atoll system.

Fishermen from southern and central Philippines once fished

with absolutely no regard of the severe

impact of their methods on the marine life

ECOSYSTEM RESEARCH AND MONITORING

A regular, uninterrupted monitoring regime is required

to provide understanding of biological resources and ecological

processes and their interrelationships. Dependable

scientific assessments provide inputs for anticipating

potential problems and serve as a basis for decision-making.
