Educational Materials
This section includes information about common fish that are caught in the outer islands, and materials education and outreach. The coral reef ecology booklet is an overview of coral reef ecology, with references specifically to the Yap outer island (and in particular Ulithi) reefs. The Monitoring handbook is a description of monitoring protocols the community can use, including data sheets.
Reef and Fisheries Monitoring Handbook for the Ulithi Atoll and Yap Outer Islands is available here.
The Coral Reefs of the Yap Outer Islands Ecology Handbook is available here.
