Abstract: |
The Lesser Sunda - Banda Seascape (SBS) lies in the center of Coral Triangle area, a world-renowned center of marine biodiversity. The region is a global conservation priority based on its high diversity of coral reef species, high reef habitat diversity, strategic role in connectivity, significant role in sea turtle life cycles and significant to highly endangered oceanic cetaceans (Huffard et al., 2012). SBS signifies the entire Seascape, which encompasses two large ecoregions: the Lesser Sunda Ecoregion and the Banda Sea Ecoregion. The boundary of the Lesser Sunda-Banda Seascape was delineated based on coastal and shelf realms, provinces, and ecoregions, following the boundary of Marine Ecoregion of the World (Spalding et. al., 2007). |
