Welcome to the SCRFA Global Spawning Aggregations Database

The Database contains information on coral reef fish spawning aggregations and documents their current status, management and exploitation history. Data are available in both database (Search Database, see above) and GIS form (GIS, see above).

You only need a LOGIN (case sensitive) if you wish to add new data on aggregations to the database, or amend or modify existing records that you have previously entered ('Enter/Edit Data'). The database administrator will then check newly entered/edited information (referred to as unverified) to ensure consistency and accuracy, before adding it to the verified searchable database.

The precise locations of aggregation sites are not released to protect them from further exploition. Should such information be needed, however, for specific conservation or management initiatives, please contact us. The SCRFA Board will consider such requests on a case-by-case basis.
