Coral Favorability: Overall Environmental Conditions: Present - American Samoa

Description

The overall condition of the environment is a combination of managed and non-managed factors. While it is difficult for managers to prevent coral bleaching events, reefs experiencing fewer stressors may recover more quickly than reefs that were highly stressed at the time of bleaching. The scores for managed (see layer "as_usgs_tutma_coralscore_mgt") and non-managed conditions (see layer "as_usgs_tutma_coralscore_nonmgt") were averaged to produce an overall environmental favorability score. This layer represents a relative score for how favorable overall conditions are for coral growth and survival from a scale of 0 (worst) to 1 (best) in the present climate scenario. These data are provided as a raster with a resolution of 500 m for American Samoa, including Tutuila and the Manua Islands (Ofu, Olosega, and Tau).

52 Open Geospatial Consortium Web Map Service - Cached (WMS-C). Use of WMS-C is similar to traditional WMS but with the addition of the "tiled=true" parameter, which triggers GeoServer to pull map tiles from GeoWebCache if they have been previously generated. This can dramatically improve performance, especially for larger datasets. Supported map formats include JPEG and PNG. Supported info formats include GeoJSON, GML, HTML, and plain text. http://geo.pacioos.hawaii.edu/geoserver/PACIOOS/gwc/service/wms?service=WMS&version=1.1.1&request=GetCapabilities&tiled=true
