  abstract = {{T}he island of {M}oorea in {F}rench {P}olynesia is representative of a relatively well preserved small tropical oceanic island but both its terrestrial and marine ecosystems arc currently under strong anthropogcnic pressures. {T}he terrestrial ecosystems are facing an increasing urbanization, and the destruction and modification of their natural habitats by cultivation and forestry plantations, accidental or intentional fires, and particularly by the invasion of alien plant and animal species. {C}oastal areas and reef ecosystems are threatened by shoreline artificialization, sedimentation due to soil erosion, increasing uses of marine and lagoon resources and frequency of coral bleaching events. {A} significant erosion of terrestrial and marine biodivcrsity is observed on the island since the last decades. {I}n the context of the {L}and {M}anagement {P}lan ({PGA}) and {M}arine {A}rea {M}anagement {P}lan ({PGEM}) recently set up in the island by local authorities, scientific surveys and inventories were made in 2006 in order to assess the status of terrestrial biodivcrsity (vascular plants) and marine biodiversity (reef fishes) and compare areas with different anthropogcnic pressures. {S}tudies conducted on the flora and the vegetation at low and middle elevation along attitudinal transects show that the plant invasion process is related to climatic and topographic factors, and species autoecology. {T}he marine study aims to compare the protected areas with control areas in order to test the effectiveness of protection measures and to propose a streamlined monitoring protocol. {A} methodological study in both terrestrial and marine ecosystems was conducted in order to propose biodivcrsity indicators which are crucial for decision making in conservation and sustainable development of island biodiversity. {W}e used {G}eographic {I}nformation {S}ystem ({GIS}) as a fast and intuitive tool for mapping indicators and their variability. {T}his methodological approach developed on the island of {M}oorca could be used as a model for other tropical islands.},
