"Comparison of the average hard coral cover between the three five-year periods comprising the last 15 years (2005-09, 2010-14, 2015-19, Tab. 9.3) indicated that there was a high degree of confidence (93%) in the long-term decline, despite the uncertainty in individual yearly estimates. Further, the vast majority (90%) of this decline occurred between 2010-14 and 2015-19, suggesting that the rate of decline in hard coral cover has accelerated during the last five years"

The National Meteorology Service was established back in May 2015, under the Ministry of National Emergency Services (NES). Since the establishment we still have one substantive officer responsible for the NMHS. The one man officer is due to the fact that the NMHS centre is still not built.

Nauru’s Intended Nationally Determined Contribution (INDC) hinges on its National Sustainable Development Strategy (NSDS) 2005-2025. The Nauru Energy Road Map 2014-2020, The Second National Communication (SNC) to the UNFCCC (submitted in 2015), and The Republic of Nauru Climate Change Adaptation and Disaster Risk Management Framework (RONAdapt). In addition, relevant data and information have been used from the Nauru Bureau of Statistics and other, various government departments, private and civil society organizations.

The Nauru Energy Road Map (NERM) 2014 - 20201 was developed during 2013 and built upon the energy sector development agenda outlined in the:

Nauru's climate change program has focused on the energy and water sectors, with an even split between adaptation and mitigation. Climate change has not been integrated into all policies and plans.
