National Coral Reef Monitoring Program: Socioeconomic surveys of human use, knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions in the Commonwealth of Northern Marianas Islands (CNMI)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Metadata Last Checked: October 04, 2025 | Last Modified: 2025-09-08T00:00:00.000+00:00
The socioeconomic survey data in this collection come from surveys of adult residents in the Commonwealth of Northern Marianas Islands (CNMI) conducted as part of NOAA's ongoing National Coral Reef Monitoring Program (NCRMP). Surveys are conducted for a random stratified sample of households on the islands of Saipan, Tinian, and Rota on a recurring basis every 5-7 years. These data are collected to record human dimensions information and socioeconomic characteristics of the CNMI's coral reef adjacent populations such as human use patterns, management support/opposition, and knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions of coral reefs/coral reef management. Because these surveys are conducted on a recurring basis with the same methods it is possible to use these data to identify changes over time. This dataset contains primary data from all socioeconomic monitoring cycles in CNMI.
