Inferring trends in a small-scale, data-limited tropical fishery based on fishery-independent data
"Size-based indicators have emerged as useful tools to analyze the status of fisheries which lack fishery dependent data over long time series, such as many coral reef fisheries. In this study, we calculate a number of size-based indicators for the Haitia...
Reefs of an uninhabited Caribbean island: fishes, benthic habitat, and opportunities to discern reef fishing impact
Navassa Island is a tiny, (5 km super(2)) uninhabited US protectorate located between Jamaica and Haiti. It is part of the Caribbean Islands National Wildlife Refuge, under the jurisdiction of the US Fish and Wildlife Service. We conducted a quantitative ...
Observations on fisheries activities at Navassa Island
Unmanaged and unquantified artisanal fishing is ongoing at Navassa Island in the Caribbean. Concern has been expressed regarding the possible impact of these fishing activities on reef resources, and no quantitative catch or effort data are available. How...
Coral disease outbreak at Navassa, a remote Caribbean Island
"In November 2004, a high prevalence of coral disease was observed at several sites around Navassa, an uninhabited Caribbean island between Haiti and Jamaica. At least fifteen mounding and foliaceous scleractinian species were affected with 'white disease...
Preliminary effort and yield estimates from the Haitian fishery at Navassa Island
This is a presentation on preliminary efforts and yield estimates from the Haitian fishery at Navassa Island given at the 60th International Gulf and Caribbean Fisheries Institute Meeting in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, November 5-9, 2007.
Coral mass bleaching and reef temperatures at Navassa Island, 2006
"Bleaching and associated mortality is an extreme threat to the persistence of coral populations in the projected warming regime of the next few decades. Recent evidence indicates that thermal bleaching thresholds may be affected by water quality gradient...
Rapid Survey of Haitian Fishing Villages Exploiting Resources at Navassa Island
For this project, FoProBiM targeted coastal communities along the Southwestern tip of Haiti located between Les Cayes to the south and Jmie to the north, especially those with fishers frequenting Navassa Island. Research was conducted to determine the num...
Apparent rapid fisheries escalation at a remote Caribbean island
"Navassa Island is a small uninhabited island, approximately 60 km west of the south-west tip of Haiti (1824'N, 7500'W). Haiti laid claim to the island in 1804, however the USA claimed it under the Guano Act of 1856 and recently placed it under jurisdicti...
This photographic guide was compiled from data collected during the 2004 NOAA survey of the coral reefs of Navassa and does not represent a comprehensive list of all Porifera in Navassa. Specifically missing are taxa that inhabit caves, overhangs, vertica...
Comprehensive U.S. Caribbean Coral Reef Ecosystem Monitoring Project (C-CCREMP): Report on the Results of the C-CCREMP FY 2006 Workshops
The purpose of this report is to document and convey the results from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Coral Reef Conservation Programs (CRCP) workshops conducted in late FY2006 on implementing a U.S. Caribbean Comprehensive Cora...
Benthic and habitat data collected on the 2004 cruise to Navassa Islands National Wildlife Refuge. Parameters include benthic cover, coral disease prevalence, location of fishing gear, coral density and sizes. Data were collected in situ by divers, some ...
This record refers to reef fish data collected on the 2004 cruise to Navassa Island National Wildlife Refuge. The random point count method (Bohnsack-Bannerot 1986) was used and parameters collected include 1) sample information (latitude-longitude, depth...
