PEBACC+ Project Factsheet
SPREP Publications, Island and Ocean Ecosystems
Available Online
2024
The Pacific Ecosystem-based Adaptation to Climate Change Plus/Phase 2 (PEBACC+) Project seeks to strengthen the resilience of ecosystems, economies, and communities to the impacts of climate change in Fiji, New Caledonia, Wallis-and-Futuna, Solomon Islands, and Vanuatu. The factsheet provides an overview of how the project will develop, sustain, and institutionalise ecosystem-based adaptation to climate change in these five countries and territories.

Much attention has been drawn towards the impact of climate change on small pacific island communities, which are among the most vulnerable. In these communities, climate change has become a cross sectoral issue including solid waste management. In this sector, the issue becomes even more acute when considering natural disasters since the quantity and diversity of waste generated during such events greatly exceeds the local technical and financial capacity.
A review of coastal processes and analysis of historical coastal change in the vicinity of Apia, Western Samoa
Climate Change Resilience
Available Online

Solomon, Steve M.

1994
The area in the immediate vicinity of Apia, Western Samoa was studied through the use of air photo interpretations, literature reviews and ground surveys in order to develop an understanding of the processes which influence the coastal and nearshore sedimentary systems. The goal of the study was to provide information on which decisions regarding sand mining and other uses of the coast can be based. In the course of this study it was found that the seaward- facing shoreline on the Mulinu'u Peninsula has undergone variable degrees of change between 1954 and 1990. The most distal portions of the Peninsula (towards the Apia Observatory grounds) have experienced more erosion than locations closer to the town centre. The most severely eroded areas appear to be related to local current patterns on the reef top. The lesser and more variable coastal changes noted near town could be related to more extensive and persistent shore protection rather than any natural causes.
