Raster data representing the mean levels of calcite in µmol/m3 for the surface water layer. The data are available for global-scale applications at a spatial resolution of 5 arcmin (approximately 9.2 km at the equator).
Marine data layers for present conditions were produced with climate data describing monthly averages for the period 2000–2014, obtained from pre-processed global ocean re-analyses combining satellite and in situ observations at regular two- and three-dimensional spatial grids.
Raster data representing the mean levels of current velocities in meters/second for the surface water layer. The data are available for global-scale applications at a spatial resolution of 5 arcmin (approximately 9.2 km at the equator).

Metadata file for the GIS data (raster and shapefiles) for the global threats to coral reefs: acidification, future thermal stress, integrated future threats, and past thermal stress.
Metadata file for the GIS data (raster and shapefiles) for the local threats to coral reefs: coastal development, integrated local, marine pollution, overfishing, and watershed pollution.

In 2007, a total of 230 species found in Palau were listed on the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resource (IUCN) Red List as vulnerable to some degree including 53 species listed as near threatened, vulnerable, or endangered 64 species listed as data deficient.
Calculated as Production (if any) + Imports - Exports
Koror and Airai have the highest populations in Palau with more development (roads, residential development and
industry). By comparison, Kayangel and Ngarchelong have small populations and very limited pollution. Loss of fish
catch from terrestrial pollution for Hatohobei and Sonsorol, two states with minimal population and negligible development, is assumed to be zero, and they are not included in the estimates.
