  • This Keyword List Contains Indian Ocean Place Names of Coral Reefs, Islands, Bays and Other Geographic Features in a Hierarchical Structure
    CoRIS Place Keyword Thesaurus by Ocean - 8/9/2016 Indian Ocean This keyword list contains Indian Ocean place names of coral reefs, islands, bays and other geographic features in a hierarchical structure. For example, the first name on the list - Bird Islet - is part of the Addu Atoll, which is in the Indian Ocean. The leading label - OCEAN BASIN - indicates this list is organized according to ocean, sea, and geographic names rather than country place names. The list is sorted alphabetically. The same names are available from “Place Keywords by Country/Territory - Indian Ocean” but sorted by country and territory name. Each place name is followed by a unique identifier enclosed in parentheses. The identifier is made up of the latitude and longitude in whole degrees of the place location, followed by a four digit number. The number is used to uniquely identify multiple places that are located at the same latitude and longitude. For example, the first place name “Bird Islet” has a unique identifier of “00S073E0013”. From that we see that Bird Islet is located at 00 degrees south (S) and 073 degrees east (E). It is place number 0013 at that latitude and longitude. (Note: some long lines wrapped, placing the unique identifier on the following line.) This is a reformatted version of a list that was obtained from ReefBase.

They occupied the island for an hour, during which they estimated that 50-70 of the garrison of 100 Egyptians were killed, a battery of four 85 mm radar- controlled weapohs was put out of action, and several lighter guns destroyed.- The Israelis lost six men killed and nine wounded. During the battle, and indeed continuing for two hours afterwards, concentrated Egyptian artillery fire from the üuez area was directed against the island. 2. From this incident an artillery exchange developed along the length'of the Suez Canal, -but was confined mainly to the sourthern area. It continued until the early kfternoon when the Israelis mounted what was probably a pre-planned series of air attacks, involving a consideratie number of aircraft, against Egyptian Army positions to the west of the Canal.

Green, Peter J. Mumby Alasdair J. Edwards and Christopher D. Clark Edited by Alasdair J. Edwards UNESCO PUBLISHING Department for International Development DFID is the British Government department responsible for promoting development and the reduction of poverty. The policy of the Government was set out in a White Paper on International Development published in November 1997. The central focus of the policy is a commitment to the internationally agreed targets to halve the proportion of people living in extreme poverty by 2015 together with the associated targets including basic health care provision and universal access to primary education by the same date. DFID seeks to work in partnership with governments which are committed to the international targets and also seeks to work with business, civil society and the research community to encourage progress which will help reduce poverty. DFID also works with multilateral institutions including the World Bank, United Nations agencies and the European Commission. United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization UNESCO promotes international cooperation in natural and social sciences, culture, communication and education in an effort to ‘build the defenses of peace in the minds of humanity’. Such co-operation benefits from the Organization’s capacity to integrate action from these different domains, for example, utilizing its Coastal Regions and Small Islands (CSI) initiative, launched in 1996.
