Abstract: This report reviews what is known about the island and assesses the impact of climate change. It identifies what further research is needed for sound management decisions and provides a Strategic Plan for the island to 2050. The report contains nine appendices, separate from, but contributing to, the main text. The appendices allow more detail on specific topics putting forward hypothesis on particular processes and assesses some of the methodologies which may help to save this iconic site or, at the very least promote the survival of its most important inhabitants.
