Description:
"This document is the final report on the activities performed by the United States National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) from 2012 to 2016, through a partnership agreement with the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Timor-Leste Mission, in support of the Government of Timor-Leste--particularly the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries (MAF). Based on consultative discussions among USAID, MAF, and NOAA, these activities provide essential baseline fisheries and marine resource information to inform ecosystem-based management of the nearshore waters of Timor-Leste. These efforts were funded primarily by the USAID Timor-Leste Mission, with significant in-kind contributions and support from NOAA, as part of the 5-year partnership between NOAA and USAID. This document provides the basis for science-based management for fisheries conservation, which in turn can improve food security and strengthen climate change resilience for the benefit of the people of Timor-Leste. NOAA's Coral Reef Ecosystem Program (CREP) provides high-quality data and information products which inform ecosystem-based management decisions and conservation actions"--Executive Summary.
