說明
This dataset contains fish occurrence data collected in Tonga during a collaborative research project funded by the Asia-Pacific Network for Global Change Research. The project, lead by The University of the South Pacific, focused on the essential role of coral reef fisheries in supporting subsistence and artisanal fishers across four Pacific Island Countries and Territories (PICTs), namely, Fiji, Tonga, Tuvalu and Vanuatu.
Given the increasing threats posed by land-based pollution, changing fishing practices, and habitat degradation, this research aims to gather regionally representative data that enhances fisheries management and informs conservation efforts.
This Tonga dataset includes 33 fish species representing 13 families. Sampling locations for this dataset include sites in Ha’atafu, Kolonga and Manuka, on the island of Tongatapu.
This research initiative was possible through the invaluable support of the Tonga Ministry of Fisheries and The University of the South Pacific Tonga Campus, and the communities of Ha’atafu, Kolonga and Manuka.
Data was collected by Siutiti Feao, Eseta Drova, Viliami Fatongiatau, Patricia Kautoke and Sioeli Afu.

計畫資料
Coral reef fisheries are vital for supporting subsistence and artisanal fishers across the Pacific Island Countries and Territories (PICTs). However, they are increasingly threatened by land-based pollution, changing fishing practices, and habitat degradation. To address these challenges, there is an urgent need for research that provides regionally representative data on fisheries changes and pollution exposure, integrates Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) into management strategies, and enhances local capacity to support conservation efforts. This project will be conducted in four geographically diverse PICTs: Fiji, Tonga, Tuvalu, and Vanuatu, with four distinct objectives: (i) enhance capacity in PICTs; (ii) establish a regional baseline for microplastics (MP) in reef-associated food fishes; (iii) document TEK concerning reef-associated food fishes and pollution using social science methodologies; and (iv) inform national and regional conservation initiatives. The project concentrates on important reef-associated food fish species, identified by local stakeholders and spanning various trophic and functional groups. By fostering the co-production of research and knowledge with local partners, this project aims to establish a critically needed regional baseline of MP contamination in common food fishes (highlighting risks to human health and nutrition). Additionally, TEK will reveal preferences and catch trends, providing essential biological data to inform management tools that enhance food security.
