Vulnerability of Fiji’s Mangroves and Associated Coral Reefs to Climate Change

Vulnerability of Fiji’s Mangroves and Associated Coral Reefs to Climate Change

Abstract:

This report was commissioned by the WWF to review and compile existing studies and other literature on the state of knowledge of the vulnerability of Fijian mangroves and adjacent coral reefs to climate change. Information is reviewed on strategies or methodologies to adapt or increase the resilience and resistance of the region to impacts of climate change.

The review has found that there is little work to date on methodologies and projects that have designed an adaptation strategy to climate change effects for mangroves or coral reef systems. The majority of work to date has been focused on assessment of impacts.
