Five Micronesian governments--the Republic of Palau, the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM), the Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI), the U.S. Territory of Guam, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI)--have committed to "effectively conserve at least 30 percent of the near-shore marine resources and 20 percent of the terrestrial resources across Micronesia by 2020." This region-wide initiative evolved from local conservation projects across Micronesia and is now a large-scale partnership between governments, nonprofit and community leaders, and multinational agencies and donors. Partners include NOAA, The Nature Conservancy (TNC), Conservation International, and others. For further information, please see: http://www.micronesiachallenge.org PacIOOS provides timely, reliable, and accurate ocean information to support a safe, clean, productive ocean and resilient coastal zone in the U.S. Pacific Islands region. The Pacific Islands Ocean Observing System (PacIOOS) is funded through the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) as a Regional Association within the U.S. Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS). PacIOOS is coordinated by the University of Hawaii School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology (SOEST).
