Habitats and blue carbon

Pressures

  • Of the years 1985 to 2025, 2017 brought the most coral heat stress: averaged over the park, the year's highest Degree Heating Weeks reached 8.9 °C-weeks. NOAA counts 4 °C-weeks as bleaching likely and 8 as severe bleaching and mortality likely.NOAA Coral Reef Watch · Public domain
  • The 2013 cumulative human impact score (Halpern et al. 2015) averages 1.73 across the park, from 0.06 to 3.35.Halpern et al. 2015 · CC0 1.0

Data and research

  • 183 of the 1,475 world map layers on Biohotspot with an open licence have data inside the park.
  • No document in the Biohotspot research library matches the search “Lucinda to Allingham - Halifax Bay”.

Left out

  • Global Mangrove Watch (2020) and the Sanderman et al. (2018) map disagree on how much mangrove is here, so neither the mangrove area nor the mangrove soil carbon is shown.

A park here is the CAPAD 2024 Marine zones that share a name and a state. Habitat areas are the habitat maps’ polygons inside the park; carbon, heat stress and human impact are the map cells that touch it. Only sources with an open licence are used. Computed on 2026-10-27.
