Launch of the Sixth GCRMN Status of Coral Reefs of the World: 2020 Report

5th October 2021, 12:30 – 13:45 (CEST)

Virtual Meeting

The flagship product of the GCRMN is the Status of Coral Reefs of the World report that describes the status and trends of coral reefs worldwide. This sixth edition of the GCRMN Status of Coral Reefs of the World report is the first since 2008, and the first based on the quantitative analysis of a global dataset compiled from raw monitoring data contributed by more than 300 members of the network. The global dataset spanned more than 40 years from 1978 to 2019, and consisted of almost 2 million observations from more than 12,000 sites in 73 reef-bearing countries around the world.

Moderator: The Honourable Penelope Wensley AC, AIMS Council Chairman, Australia
