This study was undertaken with the Government of Kiribati to examine the biodiversity benefits,feasibility and costs of removing key predators from Malden Island. If Malden could be made predator-free it could potentially provide an important seabird island and back-up to Kiritimati (Christmas Island) which is the global stronghold for Phoenix petrels (Pterodroma alba) and White-throated storm-petrels (Nesofregetta fuliginosa), and supports other important seabird and landbird populations
The status, trends and threats of Kiribati’s biodiversity are summarised in this report. It also illustrates how biodiversity conservation and management are mainstreamed across different sectors to effectively address different biodiversity conservation and management issues
The collections were made on the northern portion or" the island in the vicinity of the "Main Camp" and airport, as indicated on the map.
The Republic of Kiribati requested assistance from the US Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Institute of Pacific Islands Forestry, to conduct a survey of invasive plant species of environmental concern. The survey was carried out in August and September 2003.

This update retains essential still-current information from the 1993 edition, introduces data that have become available subsequently and adds several new categories of information.
This report is based on official trip made to Onotoa early this year 2014. The trip involved collecting information (updated) on sites, workshop and myna trap construction and destroying feeding and nesting areas.
This plan covers the operations to eradicate feral cats (Felis catus) from Malden Island, an uninhabited Wildlife Sanctuary within the southern Line Island group, part of the Republic of Kiribati.

• promote the benefits of data sharing, and its links to good governance, accountability, public participation and the rule of law
PEBACC has four outputs:
1. Ecosystem and socio-economic resilience analysis and mapping (ESRAM) completed as a basis for adaptation planning at national, provincial and community levels.
2. EbA options analysed, prioritised and plans developed.
3. EbA plans implemented with demonstrated benefits.
4. Communications and outreach products developed to promote integration of EbA options into climate change policies, plans and projects.
The aim of the inception workshop was to ensure that all 15 countries in the Pacific ACP Group of States were engaged for the second phase of BIOPAMA
