State of the Environment and Conservation in the Pacific Islands: 2020 Regional Report: Indicator 7 - Wetlands

Description:
The Pacific island region has diverse wetlands, such as the classic coastal ecosystems of mangrove forests, salt marshes, coral reefs, and seagrass beds along with rivers, freshwater lakes, and swamps (SPREP 2016). However, these wetlands are understudied. Land-use change and environmental change can alter the areal extent and condition of wetlands, and the pace of these changes vary among Pacific islands.
