Abstract

As global climate change keeps deteriorating, adverse effects have emerged, including global warming, rising sea levels, and extreme weather. From diverse literature, we summarized that these effects have triggered irretrievable damage to coral reefs worldwide and indirectly influenced tourism in small island developing states (SIDS). Since the economy depends drastically on tourism, we propose the study to quantify the effect caused by coral bleaching, a by-product of global warming, on tourism in SIDS. We schedule to find the relationship between coral bleaching rate and tourism development in targeted areas via a panel data model and a regression model. We expect our result can contribute to part of the ministries' legislation in SIDS
