� The 1992 Rio Summit, and subsequent international environmental conventions, has reinforced the need for specific, reliable international data on environmental conditions and trends.
� In 1996, four United Nations bodies and an international scientific community created the Global Terrestrial Observing System (GTOS) to help confront this challenge

Defining the Coast
Chapter 17 includes seven major programme areas that relate to coastal areas and management, of which the first is integrated management and sustainable development of coastal areas, including Exclusive Economic Zones.
Agenda 21 was adopted at the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED) in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in 1992. It is one of the key documents for integrated coastal area management and led the way for subsequent coastal area agreements and legal instruments. Documentation: UNCED (1992); http://www.un.org/esa/sustdev/.
The Ramsar definition of wetlands accounts for a wide variety of coastal habitats. The Ramsar Classification System for Wetland Type lists the following types of coastal wetlands: permanent shallow marine waters; marine subtidal aquatic beds; coral reefs; rocky marine shores; sand, shingle or pebble shores; estuarine waters; intertidal mud, sand or salt flats; intertidal marshes; intertidal forested wetlands; coastal brackish/saline lagoons; coastal freshwater lagoons, and karst and other subterranean hydrological systems. Under the original Convention on Wetlands, wetlands are described as: areas of marsh, fen, peatland or water, whether natural or artificial, permanent or temporary, with water that is static or flowing, fresh, brackish or salt, including areas of marine water the depth of which at low tide does not exceed six meters. [Wetlands] may incorporate adjacent riparian and coastal zones, islands or bodies of marine water deeper than six meters at low tide lying within the wetland.
The Ramsar Convention on Wetlands held in Ramsar, Iran, in 1971, covers all aspects of wetland conservation, recognizing their wetlands’ extreme importance for biodiversity conservation and the well-being of human communities. Documentation: Ramsar Convention on Wetlands (1971) and associated key documents (Articles 1.2 and 2.1); http://www.ramsar.org/.
The Millennium Assessment reports on ecosystems and ecosystems services within reporting categories. The coastal zone is one of six reporting categories defined by (i) a central concept and (ii) boundary limits for mapping. Central Concept: interface between ocean and land, extending seawards to about the middle of the continental shelf and inland to include all areas strongly influenced by the proximity to the ocean. Boundary Limits for Mapping: area between 50 m below mean sea level and 50 m above the high tide level or extending landward to a distance 100 km from shore. Includes coral reefs, intertidal zones, estuaries, coastal aquaculture and sea grass communities.
MA reporting categories are not mutually exclusive. For example, a wetland ecosystem in a coastal region may be examined both in the MA analysis of coastal systems as well as in its analysis of inland water systems. Some differentiation is made between the coastal zone and other adjacent reporting categories based on the definition of boundary limits for mapping. For example, the coastal zone has a shared boundary with boarding marine systems (> 50 m depth). Permanent inland waters of inland water systems are also separated spatially from respective coastal systems (permanent water bodies inland from the coastal zone).
The United Nations Millennium Assessment (MA) is an international work programme designed to meet scientific information needs concerning the consequences of ecosystem change and available options for response. Documentation: MA (2003); http://www.millenniumassessment.org/.

The mature observing system focuses on four phenomena of interest:
• human dimensions, land use, land cover and critical habitat alteration;
• sediment loss and delivery;• water cycle and water quality, and • effects of sea level change, storms and
flooding.
