West Point Community Sciences Since January 2010 Presented by: Julius T. Wleh West Point Community Sciences Volunteer
Findings from the Data Over Time • Fish monitoring Fish monitoring from January 8, 2010 to November 8, 2010 is poor due to the too many trawlers fishing in the Economic Exclusive Zone (EEZ).
Findings from the Data Over Time • Air Temperature From January to November, the temperature has been stable allowing fishers to go out to fish. The highest temperature was recorded in September.
Findings from the Data Over Time • Wind and Rain • Over the period of January to November, there has been light rain and medium wind condition • Water Surface • Over the period from January to November the water surface has been flat ;again giving fishers the time to fish but production always low.
Findings from the Data Over Time • Trawling There have been too many trawlers fishing very close to shore causing lots of damages in fishing equipments.
Findings from the Data Over Time • Shoreline Survey The over population of West POINT IS A PROBLEM. The shoreline of this community continues to be the dump site of community dwellers. • Tide level The tide level has been on and off; that is as the sea tide rises, there is always threat and even destroying houses.
How community volunteers share findings with the community at large Now Plans for the future
How the Coordinator can help you to: • Increase the number of volunteers • Sharing information about Community Sciences to other community members • Encourage them • Motivate them to work hard in the sustainability of their livelihood • Improve the communication on findings of Community Sciences to community members • Going house to house • Community event
