Cobertura Geográfica
The biodiversity information included in the Institute of Marine Affairs Species Checklist was collected by members of the Institute of Marine Affairs through a variety of scientific projects that spanned the waters of Trinidad and Tobago's Exclusive Economic Zone.

Cobertura Taxonômica
This datasets consists of biodiversity data derived from six scientific manuscripts produced by Researchers at the Institute of Marine Affairs. The research projects associated with these manuscripts covered a wide array of marine species including, but not limited to, Sponges of Class Demospongiae from Trinidad and Tobago; Octocorals from Trinidad and Tobago; and ahermatypic shallow-water corals of Trinidad. There is also marine biodiversity data derived from ecological surveys done around the reefs of Tobago.

Dados Sobre o Projeto
This data is a part of the Institute of Marine Affairs' (IMA's) aim of developing a centralised Marine Biodiversity Hub (MBH) for the purpose of (1) effective dissemination of data on the state of marine ecosystems in T&T to research partners, civil society, decision- makers and the international community, and (2) building capacity for more integrative research collaborations and creating sustainable partnerships through data sharing for research, management and conservation.

| Identificador | BID-CA2020-004-INS |
| Financiamento | The IMA has received an Institution-level biodiversity data mobilization grant from the Global Biodiversity Information Facility's (GBIF's) Biodiversity Information for Development (BID) programme- funded by the European Union- to develop a centralised Marine Biodiversity Hub (MBH). |
| Descrição da Área de Estudo | The study area of research at the Institute of Marine Affairs (IMA) is mainly focused in the waters of Trinidad and Tobago's Exclusive Economic Zone (TT EEZ) with some past projects covering marine species in Venezuela, St. Lucia, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, and Grenada. Marine biodiversity data has been collected by the IMA since 1977 and the volume of data collected continues to grow each year. The studies done cover a wide array of taxonomic coverage including but not limited to corals, fish, sponges, macroalgae and polychaetes. |
| Descrição do Design | As the primary government agency focused on researching and monitoring marine biodiversity over the last 40 years, the Institute of Marine Affairs (IMA) holds the largest repository of marine biodiversity data in the country. The data that is available is in a myriad of forms and not centralised or searchable. The marine data mobilized through GBIF will fill important knowledge gaps on the biodiversity of marine life, and highlight the many marine ecosystems present in T&T. The data will add to regional and global assessments of marine biodiversity. This should assist with bringing international awareness on the state of marine biodiversity in T&T, and lead to potential conservation and research projects. The data sources for the MBH will include literature citations for scientific reports which discuss marine biodiversity but no longer have the raw data available for them as well as ongoing monitoring data from institutional projects such as coral reef health monitoring. Dependent on the metadata available, the scientific reports will be categorized into checklist, occurrence and event sheets. Past available biodiversity data at the Institute has been digitized and are undergoing the standardization process to adhere to the Darwin Core principles. |

Métodos de Amostragem
This data was derived using past scientific reports published by the Institute of Marine Affairs through its relevant researchers. The data was collected by the researchers by way of ecological surveys through snorkel and scuba diving.
| Área de Estudo | The study area for this data was focused on the waters in Trinidad and Tobago's Exclusive Economic Zone (TT EEZ) with the biodiversity data in this dataset being collected between the years 1977-2002. |
|---|---|
| Controle de Qualidade | The derived biodiversity data was cross checked using the Global Biodiversity Information Facility's Species Name Matching Tool to ensure that the scientific names used were the globally accepted names. |
Descrição dos passos do método:
- The checklist data was derived from past scientific reports published by the Institute's researchers. The marine biodiversity data was derived from the manuscripts and then cross-checked using the Global Biodiversity Information Facility's Species Name Matching Tool to ensure that the scientific names used were up-to-date.
