    • Guam Atlantis Ecosystem Model Output Data for Coral Reef Ecosystems

    Metadata Updated: March 16, 2024

    A proof-of-concept Guam Atlantis Coral Reef Ecosystem Model has been developed and an added coral module to the Atlantis framework has been validated. The model is applied for management-strategy evaluation by simulating existing and alternative fisheries and land-use regulations and comparing the results under different management and environmental change scenarios (e.g. in terms of fish biomass, coral cover, fisherman participation). These scenarios with associated goals were identified in cooperation with Guam’s natural resource managers and federal agencies responsible for management of coral reef habitats and fisheries and used as examples in the proof-of-concept Guam Atlantis model. No one scenario reached all goals and tradeoffs are visualized with the model output. Data can be accessed on this record in the section "Distribution Info".
