The Fisheries Refugia Interactive Mapping Tool for South China Sea

The South China Sea Project’s Regional Working Group on Fisheries is establishing a regional system of fisheries refugia in the South China Sea and Gulf of Thailand. This initiative is aimed at building the resilience of Southeast Asian fisheries. The interactive mapping tool below shows sites selected for inclusion in an initial system of fisheries refugia, other sites important to the life-cycles of fish species of transboundary significance, and the South China Sea Project’s suite of habitat demonstration sites.
