East Rennell
East Rennell is located in the southern third of Rennell Island, the southernmost island of the Solomon Islands in the western Pacific Ocean. At 86 km long and 15 km wide, Rennell is the largest raised coral atoll in the world. The site covers an area of approximately 37,000 hectares, with the marine area extending 3 nautical miles out to sea. The main feature of the island is Lake Tejano, which was once a lagoon on the atoll. The lake is the largest of the Pacific Islands (15,500 hectares), is brackish and contains many rugged limestone islands and endemic species. Most of Rennell is covered in dense forest, with an average canopy height of 20 meters. Combined with the strong climatic influences from frequent hurricanes, the site is a true natural laboratory for scientific research. The site is under traditional land ownership and management.
