1D 55 . ‘Dn aa sP h. ’ o, r AS r. d. on ua rg SHIRETOKO is one of the richest integrated ecosystems in the world. Encompassing both terrestrial and marine areas the property is located in the northeast of Hokkaido,the northernmost island of Japan.
It comprises a part of the Shiretoko Peninsula, which protrudes into the Sea of Okhotsk and the surrounding marine areas.The extraordinarily high productivity of the marine and terrestrial component of the property, is largely influenced by the formation of seasonal sea ice at the lowest latitude in the northern hemisphere.
The supply of nutrient-rich intermediate water allows blooms of phytoplankton in early spring, which underpins Shiretoko’s marine ecosystem.
This in turn sustains the food sources for terrestrial species, including the brown bear and Blakiston’s fish-owl, through salmonid species swimming upstream to spawn.
The property is globally important for a number of marine species, globally threatened seabirds and migratory birds.The terrestrial ecosystem has various types of virgin vegetation reflecting the complex topography and weather conditions of the property, and serves as a habitat for a rich and diverse range of fauna and flora including endangered and endemic species such as Viola kitamiana. The property is a seasonal habitat for a number of marine mammals including the Steller’s sea lion, Spotted Seal, Killer Whale, Minke Whale, Sperm Whale, Dall’s Porpoise and the endangered Fin Whale.
Tourism is an increasingly important issue within the property. Large numbers of tourists visit the property in summer and the numbers of tourists are also increasing in winter to view the sea ice. A consolidated ecotourism strategy, based on the protection of the natural values of the property, the promotion of high quality nature based experiences for visitors and promotion of the local economic development is required to ensure conservation of the property values.
