High islands are better-watered volcanic islands that have fertile soil, steep terrain, and a higher elevation. These islands are ideal for agriculture and have a diverse economy based on crops and livestock. In contrast, low islands are made up of coral reefs and do not have the same level of fertile soil and water resources, making their economies more reliant on fishing and tourism. Melanesian, Micronesian, and Polynesian islands refer to cultural and geographic classifications, rather than ecological or economic characteristics.
