‘Coping with Climate Change in the Pacific Island
Climate change, resulting from both
natural and anthropogenic factors, is
expected to affect virtually every aspect
of marine ecosystem structure
and function from community composition
and biogeochemical cycling,
to the prevalence of diseases. Climate
can affect all life-history stages
through direct and indirect processes
and the possible effects of climate
change for marine populations include
changes in population dynamics
(body size, reproduction), community
composition and geographical
distributions.

The AUSAID funded project was established with a goal of providing accurate, long term record of sea levels in the south pacific both for partner countries and international scientific community which need such information to better understand how the pacific oceanographic and meteorogical environment is changing.
