Inventories include overall bird species observed, distribution and status of seabird species of concern, distribution and status of waterfowl, land bird, and shorebird species of concern, numbers of seabird species of concern, numbers of waterfowl, land bird, and shorebird species of concern, number of Pacific Reef Heron color morphs, plant species observed, coral species of concern observed, sponge species of concern observed, and mollusk species of concern observed. The primary objective of the inventory was to document the presence and general distribution of terrestrial and marine SOCs and to record observations on the overall condition of their habitats. Terrestrial SOCs include certain migratory seabirds, shorebirds, and waterfowl. Important terrestrial habitats include Pisonia, Pemphis, and mixed broadleaf forests; salt ponds; and seabird and shorebird breeding and loafing sites. Marine SOCs include certain marine mammals, sea turtles, corals, sponges, and mollusks. Important marine habitats include lagoon, interislet, and seaward reef flats and slopes; reef passes; lagoon floors; seagrass beds; reef quarry pits; and intertidal zones. completed historicalArchive NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information ncei.info@noaa.gov https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/contact HTTPS NCEI Contact Information Information for contacts at NCEI. information pointOfContact asNeeded https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/metadata/landing-page/bin/gfx?id=gov.noaa.nodc:0000631 Graphic not available.
