> Title and info: Trinational effort to manage the Gulf of Mexico Coral Reefs: preliminary report card
>
> Summary: The preliminary Report Card on the Coral Reefs of the Gulf of Mexico is a trinational (Mexico, Cuba, USA) effort to design best practices for monitoring, and to implement long time series of observations that are interoperable.
> The objectives are to ensure comparability, understanding of regional trends and causes, and support conservation and management decisions at the scale of the Caribbean Basin and Gulf of Mexico.
>
> This is an initiative underwritten and led by the Harte Research Institute for Gulf of Mexico Studies (Texas A&M University - Corpus Christi) and UNAM-Sisal, with the kind support from the William Knox Holt Foundation, and the Integration and Application Network (IAN) from the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science.
>
> Ecosystem report cards are transformative assessment and communications products. They compare environmental data to scientific or management thresholds. They communicate the status (health) of a coastline, river or watershed to a broad audience. They are a vehicle for stakeholder engagement and shared visioning.
