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

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.

本数据集收录的社会经济调查数据，源自美国国家海洋和大气管理局（National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration，简称NOAA）持续开展的全国珊瑚礁监测计划（National Coral Reef Monitoring Program，简称NCRMP）中，针对北马里亚纳群岛联邦（Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands，简称CNMI）成年居民开展的调研工作。该调研每5至7年周期性开展一次，针对塞班岛（Saipan）、天宁岛（Tinian）与罗塔岛（Rota）的家庭实施分层随机抽样。本次数据收集旨在记录北马里亚纳群岛联邦珊瑚礁周边居民的人文维度信息与社会经济特征，具体涵盖人类活动使用模式、对珊瑚礁管理的支持/反对立场，以及民众针对珊瑚礁及珊瑚礁管理的认知、态度与观点。由于该调研采用统一方法周期性推进，因此可依托本数据集识别随时间推移产生的变化。本数据集包含北马里亚纳群岛联邦所有社会经济监测周期的一手原始数据。
